  1. Couscous & PEAS

    Boil the kettle. Place the Couscous and peas in a bowl with 75ml [150ml]|#7DA0D7 of boiling water. Stir through a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. Cover and steam until rehydrated, 5-8 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

  2. CARAMELISED Onion

    Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the Onion until caramelised, 8-10 minutes (shifting occasionally). At the halfway mark, add a sweetener (to taste). Remove from the pan, season, and cover.

  3. LENTILS & Tomatoes

    Return the pan (with a lid) to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, toast the lentils until golden and crispy, 6-8 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and season. In a bowl, combine the vinegar, a drizzle of olive oil, and mix to emulsify. Add the Tomato, toss to combine, season, and set aside.

  4. Ostrich

    Place a clean 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). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter and the thyme sprigs. Remove from the pan. Season and set aside.

  5. DINNER IS READY

    Assemble the dish in buddha bowl style by placing the Couscous next to the lentils, tomato, caramelised onions, and the ostrich arranged alongside, discarding the thyme sprigs. Finish with dollops of hummus. Well done, Chef!
