LIVING ON THE WEDGE
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the potato wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through, shifting halfway. On completion, remove from the oven and sprinkle over the rub and the grated cheese. Toss until combined.
GLAZED OVER
In a small saucepan, add ¾ of the rinsed blueberries, a sweetener of choice (to taste), ¾ of the wine sauce, the grated garlic, and ½ the rinsed rosemary. Using a potato masher or fork, lightly crush the blueberries to break their skins. Place over medium heat and simmer for 4-5 minutes until slightly reduced. Set aside and cover to keep warm.
SOME CRUNCH FOR THE MUNCH
Place the walnuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until starting to brown, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan and roughly chop. Set aside. Return the pan to medium-high heat with a splash of water. When starting to bubble, simmer the sliced green beans for 3-4 minutes until cooked al dente. Toss with a drizzle of oil, season, and remove from the pan.
SUAVE SALAD
In a salad bowl, combine the cooked green beans, the shredded salad leaves, the remaining blueberries, and the toasted walnuts. Just before serving, add the remaining wine sauce, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Toss until coated.
OH S’RICH, STEAK
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the ostrich steak dry with paper towel. When the pan is hot, fry the steak for 2-3 minutes per side or until browned all over and cooked to your preference. (The time frame recommended will yield a medium-rare result.) In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with the remaining rosemary and a knob of butter. Rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing. Lightly season.
QUICK REHEAT
While the steak is resting, return the saucepan with the blueberry glaze to medium heat and bring to a simmer. Remove the rosemary stalks and discard. Loosen with a splash of water if necessary, and season to taste.
