BROWN OSTRICH
Boil the kettle. Place a pot large enough for the soup over high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the ostrich pieces until browned, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pot.
SOUP STARTER
Return the pot to medium heat with all the ostrich juices and a knob of butter. When hot, fry the diced onions and the carrot pieces until slightly golden, 4-5 minutes. Add the grated garlic, the peppercorns, and the quartered potatoes, and fry until fragrant, 2-3 minutes.
SOUP
Dilute the stock with 400ml of boiling water. Add the diluted stock and the browned ostrich to the pot. Simmer until the veggies are cooked through, 15-20 minutes. Stir in the cream and simmer until warmed through, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat and season.
CRISPY ONIONS
Place a pan over medium heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the sliced onion rounds with a pinch of salt until crispy, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.
BUTTERED BAGUETTE ROUNDS
Spread butter (optional) or oil over the baguette rounds. Return the pan to medium heat. When hot, toast the baguette rounds until golden, 1-2 minutes per side.
