  1. COOK THE QUINOA

    Place the rinsed quinoa in a pot with 150ml of salted water. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the tails have popped out, 12-15 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain (if necessary). Set aside to steam, about 5 minutes.

  2. SIZZLING STROG

    Place a deep pan, with a lid, over medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. Pat the ostrich dry with paper towel. In a bowl, toss the ostrich strips with the cornflour and seasoning. When the pan is hot, add the coated ostrich and fry until crispy, 2-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towel.

  3. MARROW & SESAME

    Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the baby marrow pieces until charred, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and season. Return the pan, wiped down, to medium heat. Add the sesame seeds and toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. SAUCY STIR-FRY

    Return the pan to low-medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the grated ginger, the grated garlic, and the spring onion whites. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the Asian dressing and the hoisin sauce. Simmer until sticky and glossy, 1-2 minutes. Add the cooked ostrich, the cooked baby marrow, the chopped peppers, and the cooked quinoa. Season and toss until coated.
