- NOMU Moroccan Rub

- Onions
- Ostrich
- Pecan Nuts

From your kitchen:
- Oil (cooking, olive or coconut)
- Salt & Pepper
- Water
- Butter (optional)
SOAK & TOAST
Place the skewers in a shallow dish, cover with water, and allow to soak for 10 minutes (this prevents them from burning when over the heat). Place the pecans in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until golden brown, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan and roughly chop.
SET UP THE SKEWERS
Separate the layers of the onion wedges into petals and place in a bowl. Add the pepper chunks, the tomato wedges, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Toss until fully coated in the oil. Thread 2-3 ostrich chunks, 2-3 onion petals, 2-3 pepper chunks, and a tomato wedge onto a skewer, making sure they are secure. Repeat in the same order, filling up each skewer until both the skewers are full. Set aside.
LUSH SALAD
In a salad bowl, combine the diced apple, the shredded green leaves, and the chopped pecans. Loosen the pesto with oil in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.
OSTRICH KEBABS
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil (see Chef’s Tip for braai option!). When hot, add the ostrich skewers and fry for 5-7 minutes - this time may vary depending on the thickness of your veggies and ostrich. Turn the skewers as they colour. On completion, the veggies should be starting to char. In the final minute, baste the skewers with a knob of butter or a drizzle of oil, and the rub. Remove from the pan and season to taste.
PLATE IT UP
Plate up the colourful ostrich skewers and drizzle over the pesto. Serve the apple salad on the side crumbled with the blue cheese. Dig in, Chef!
