PARBOILED POTATOES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the rinsed baby potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain, season, and set aside.
TOAST
Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
SMASHED POTATOES
In a bowl, combine the grated garlic, the chopped rosemary, and 2 tbsp of oil. Spread the parboiled potatoes on a lightly greased roasting tray. Using a fork, gently press down, splitting the skin, but keeping them in one piece. Drizzle over the garlic-rosemary oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 15-20 minutes.
SIZZLIN’ STEAKS
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the ostrich dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the ostrich until browned, 2-4 minutes per side (for medium-rare). Remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
FRESH SALAD
In a bowl, combine the lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, and a sweetener (to taste). Add the peas, the shredded leaves, and the toasted sunflower seeds. Toss to combine and season.
