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

  2. BEANS

    Return the pan, wiped down if necessary, to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the trimmed beans until lightly charred, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and season.

  3. PITA

    Place a clean pan over medium heat. When hot, toast the pita until heated through, 30-60 seconds per side. Alternatively, place it on a plate and heat up in the microwave, 30-60 seconds. Cut in half to make the pockets.

  4. TIME TO EAT

    Dress the rinsed leaves with lemon juice (to taste) and a drizzle of olive oil. Spread the avocado hummus inside the pita pockets, then add the sliced steak with some of the pan juices and sprinkle the sliced onions on top. Serve alongside a bed of dressed green leaves, topped with the charred green beans, and crumble over the feta. Enjoy, Chef!
