ROAST BUTTERNUT
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 golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
SIMPLE SALSA
In a bowl, combine the halved olives, the diced cucumber, the diced tomatoes, the diced onion (to taste), ½ the chopped parsley, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
BUTTER-BASTED OSTRICH
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the ostrich dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the ostrich until browned, 2-3 minutes per side (for medium-rare). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter and ¾ of the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
A TRIP TO GREECE
Plate up the roasted butternut chunks, the sliced ostrich, the tomato salsa, and the tzatziki. Side with the hummus, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle over the remaining NOMU rub. Scatter over the remaining parsley. A masterpiece, Chef!
