TIME FOR CARROT-E
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the carrot wedges and the onion wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 15-20 minutes (shifting halfway).
GARLIC BECHAMEL
Place a pan over medium heat with 40g of butter. Once melted, vigorously whisk in the grated garlic and the flour to form a roux. Cook out, 1-2 minutes (stirring constantly). Slowly whisk in the milk until the sauce thickens slightly. If the béchamel is too thick for your liking, add an extra splash of hot water. Remove from the heat and season.
BUTTERY 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. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
