  1. MILLET

    Place the millet in a pot over medium heat. Toast until fragrant, 1-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add 150ml of salted water and a drizzle of olive oil. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 10-12 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

  2. PREP

    Drain and roughly chop the piquanté peppers. Peel the garlic clove. Peel and roughly slice the onion. Drain the capers and the feta.

  3. VERDE

    Place the drained capers, the peeled garlic (to taste), the rinsed rocket & spinach mix, and ½ the picked mint on a chopping board. Finely chop, place in a bowl and mix in the lemon juice (to taste), 30ml of oil, and seasoning. Loosen with oil in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency. Alternatively, place all the ingredients in a blender and blend until combined. Set aside.

  4. BROC

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil or a knob of butter. When hot, fry the broccoli pieces until lightly charred, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add a splash of water, cover with a lid, and simmer until al dente, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and season.

  5. ONIONS

    Return the pan to medium heat and add a drizzle of oil if necessary. When hot, add the sliced onions and ½ the NOMU rub. Fry until lightly golden but still crunchy, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan, add to the bowl of broccoli, cover and set aside.

  6. STEAK

    Return the pan to 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 (shifting occasionally). In the final minute, baste with a knob of butter and the remaining NOMU rub. Remove from the pan, reserving any pan juices. Season and set aside.

  7. SALAD

    Combine the millet, the drained feta, the chopped pepper, the fried onions and broccoli, and any remaining pan juices. Add a generous drizzle of olive oil (if you’d like) and season.

  8. YUM!

    Bowl up the millet salad. Top with the ostrich pieces and drizzle over the homemade salsa verde. Garnish with the remaining mint.
