ROAST Aubergine & CHICKPEAS
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Spread out the Aubergine chunks on half of a roasting tray, coat in oil and the Oriental rub, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until softened. Place the drained chickpeas in a bowl. Coat in oil and some seasoning.
SWEET POTATO MASH
Place a pot of cold salted water over a high heat. Add the sweet potato chunks and bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until soft. Drain on completion and return to the pot.
ROLL THOSE KOFTAS & MAKE DRESSING
Place the Ostrich mince in a bowl with the spring onion whites. Mix until well combined and season. Roll into 3 koftas. Loosen ½ the tahini with the lemon juice. Add water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency. Season with salt, pepper, and a sweetener of choice.
FRY THE KOFTAS
When the Aubergine has 15 minutes remaining, give them a shift and place the dressed chickpeas on the other half of the tray. Roast for the remaining time until crispy and caramel in colour. Place a pan over a medium-high heat. When hot, fry the koftas for 2-3 minutes in total until browned but not cooked through, shifting as they colour. Place onto a lightly greased baking tray. Bake in the hot oven for 4-5 minutes until cooked through.
MASH & SALAD
Add the remaining Tahini to the pot with the drained sweet potato. Add a splash of milk or water, a knob of butter or coconut oil, and some seasoning. Mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth. In a salad bowl, add the rinsed green leaves, a drizzle of olive oil, the chopped cranberries, and ½ of the roasted Chickpeas.

Plate up a mound of the Tahini sweet potato mash, top with the Ostrich koftas and drizzle over the tahini lemon dressing. Side with the spiced Aubergine chunks and the spinach cranberry salad.
