GOLDEN NUGGETS
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the potato pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the NOMU rub, and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 35-40 minutes (shifting halfway).
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 (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan. Season and set aside.
SAUCY
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced onions until golden, 4-5 minutes. Mix in the tomato passata and 100ml of water. Simmer until thickening, 10-12 minutes (stirring occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, mix in the browned ostrich, and the sliced chilli (to taste). Remove from the heat, add a sweetener (to taste), and season.
SO CHEESY…
When the potatoes have 5 minutes remaining, scatter over the grated cheese and turn the oven onto the grill setting. Cook for the remaining time until the cheese is melted and lightly golden.
FINAL TOUCHES
When the ostrich is almost done, mix in the drained black beans, and the BBQ sauce. Stir for 2-3 minutes until the beans are heated through. Season and add a sweetener (to taste).
RELISH YOUR FABULOUS WORK
