TASTY TAGLIATELLE
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Cook the pasta until al dente, 10-12 minutes. Drain, reserve the pasta water, and toss through a drizzle of olive oil (optional).
O-YUM Ostrich
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Ostrich strips dry with paper towel and cut into chunks. When hot, sear them until browned, 30-60 seconds (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and season.
PERFECT CREAMY PASTA
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil and 10g [20g]|#7DA0D7 butter. When hot, fry the grated garlic until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Add the flour and cook until lightly golden, 1-2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the milk, making sure there are no lumps. Add 100ml [200ml]|#7DA0D7 of pasta water and simmer until slightly thickened, 3-4 minutes. Mix in the cooked pasta, the Peas, and the browned Ostrich. Simmer until warmed through, 2-3 minutes. Add the Spinach and allow to wilt, 1-2 minutes. Loosen with a splash of the pasta water if it’s too thick.
