  1. READY THE ROAST

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the butternut pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until cooked through and crisping up, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. BEAN THERE, DONE THAT

    Boil the kettle. Place a pot with salted boiling water over high heat. Once bubbling rapidly, blanch the sliced green beans until al dente, 2-3 minutes. Drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking process.

  3. I’LL FRY IF I WANT TO

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the ostrich pieces until browned, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. START THE STEW

    Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced onion until soft and browned, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the NOMU rub and the wine. Cook until almost all evaporated, 1-2 minutes.

  5. SIMMERING AWAY

    When the wine has almost all evaporated, add the tomato passata and 100ml of warm water to the pan. Reduce the heat and simmer until reduced and thickening, 10-12 minutes (stirring occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, add the browned ostrich pieces. Remove from the heat, add a sweetener, and season.

  6. IT’S A TOSS UP

    In a bowl, combine the rinsed leaves, the blanched green beans, the chopped artichokes, the drained pickled peppers, the red wine vinegar, and seasoning.

  7. GRAB THE PLATES!

    Plate up the roasted butternut. Top with the ostrich stew and side with the fresh salad. Garnish with the sliced mint. Beautiful work, Chef!
