THE SWEETEST CORN
Preheat the oven to 220°C on the grill setting. Place a nonstick pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the drained corn for 3-4 minutes until charred, shifting occasionally. On completion, transfer to a salad bowl and set aside.
FRY THAT MINCE
Return the pan to a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add in the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Once separated, stir in the Spanish Rub to taste. Allow to caramelise for 4-5 minutes until browned but not cooked through, stirring occasionally. Mix in the tomato passata and 50ml of water. Lower the heat and allow to simmer for 3-4 minutes until thickened. During the final minute, stir in the drained black beans until heated through. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and a sweetener of choice. Remove from the heat on completion.
SAY CHEESE!
Spoon the mince mixture into an oven tray and evenly sprinkle over the grated cheese. Grill in the hot oven for 4-5 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden.
INFUSE THE CHEESE & TOSS THE SALSA
In a small bowl, combine the cottage cheese with ½ of the chopped chives. Mix in some seasoning and set aside for serving. To the bowl of corn, add the chopped pineapple, ¾ of the chopped jalapeños (or to taste), and the remaining chives. Drizzle with oil, season, and toss to combine.
A BIG OL’ PILE OF YUM
Dish up some cheesy ostrich mince and top with hearty dollops of chive crème. Scatter over the salsa and garnish with the remaining jalapeños to taste. Serve with the crunchy nachos on the side for scooping it all up. Time to get those hands messy!
