THANK GOODNESS IT’S FRY DAY
Boil a full kettle. Dilute the stock and herb mix with 120ml of boiling water and set aside. Pat the ostrich strips dry with paper towel. Place a pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, sear the strips for 1-2 minutes until browned but not cooked through. On completion, season and set aside in a bowl. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with another drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the sliced mushrooms for 4-5 minutes until golden, shifting as they colour. Remove from the pan and add to the bowl of ostrich.
PASTA LA VISTA
Fill a pot for the pasta with boiling water, add a pinch of salt, and place over a high heat. Once boiling rapidly, cook the pasta for 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain on completion, reserving a cup of pasta water, and toss through some oil to prevent sticking.
THE STROGANOFF BASE
Wipe down the pan and return it to a medium heat with another drizzle of oil. When hot, sauté the sliced onion for 2-3 minutes until soft. Add the smoked paprika to taste and sauté for 30-60 seconds until fragrant. Stir through the flour and fry for another 30-60 seconds, shifting constantly. Gradually mix in the diluted stock mix, stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until thickened, stirring occasionally.
LAST STRETCH!
When the sauce has thickened, add in the ostrich and mushrooms, and simmer for another 1-2 minutes until the ostrich is cooked through. Stir in the crème fraîche, rinsed spinach and lemon zest (to taste) for 1-2 minutes until combined. Add a splash of pasta water if the sauce is too thick for your liking. Season to taste and remove the pan from the heat.
DINNER IS SERVED
Pile up a generous helping of the steaming tagliatelle pasta and spoon over the silky stroganoff. Garnish with a sprinkling of freshly chopped parsley and serve a lemon wedge on the side for that extra zing. There you have it!
