CARROT WEDGES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the carrot wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
BEANS
Coat the rinsed beans in oil and season. When the carrots have been roasting for 10-15 minutes, scatter over the beans and roast for the remaining time until crisping up.
TOAST
Place the chopped pistachios in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
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 per side (for medium-rare). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter and the grated garlic. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
FRESH SALAD
In a bowl, combine the rinsed green leaves, the sliced radish, the toasted pistachios, the cheese shavings, the roast, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
TIME TO EAT
Plate up the loaded warm salad, top with the steak slices, and drizzle over the balsamic reduction. Well done, Chef!
