Use QEMU/OVMF, it gets more attention from Intel than DUET, which was an 
older tech. I don't think anyone at ARM cares about DUET, but theydo 
care about helping QEMU/OVMF.

The UEFI Forum doesn't bother to update OVMF binaries to their download 
site, they're ancient. They presume you'll use the UDK/EDK2 to build 
your own fresh ones. If you don't want to build your own and need some 
existing binaries, look to the Linux community, for their research in 
learning how to work around SecureBoot. There are multiple fresh OVMFs 
there. Focus on the few Linux companies that're members of the UEFI 
Forum (Canonical, RedHat, Ubuntu), and their free distros, Fedora, 
Ubuntu, OpenSUSE.

If you really want to try and use DUET, look to external DUET extensions 
that make the TianoCore DUET release usable. There's this one, and one 
other I can't find at the moment:

If you're on a budget and can't get a Tunnel Mountain, I'd suggest an 
ARM dev board, over the Minnow. Minnowboard is good, but AFAIK you can't 
update the firmware, you have to wait for Intel to produce the binaries, 
so it's not that useful. If/when you can update your own firmware, then 
it'll become a lot more useful for EFI dev.

Take a look at Linaro.org's ARM dev boards, and their fork of EDK2 for 
ARM. You can use their Ubuntu or Android binaries, and use their UEFI, 
in QEMU, or with live hardware.

If you're on a budget, ignore hardware and just use QEMU/OVMF.
