  1. BUTTERNUT FORGET

    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).

  2. I CAN WITH PECANS

    Place the chopped pecans in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. SWEET SENSATION

    To a salad bowl, add the apple slices. Toss with the rinsed leaves, drained feta, ½ the toasted nuts, a drizzle of olive oil, the balsamic vinegar and seasoning.

  4. LEKKER LEEKS

    When the butternut has been in for 10 minutes, toss through the leek pieces and return to the oven for the remaining time.

  5. BUTTER-BASTED OSTRICH STEAK

    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 the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.

  6. MMMELTED CHEESE

    When the roast has 5 minutes remaining, toss with the grated hard cheese and return to the oven for the remaining time.

  7. LOOK AT THAT PLATE!

    Plate up the cheese-crusted roasted veg and side with the sliced ostrich. Serve the dressed apple salad on the side. Garnish with the remaining nuts.
