Argentinians share South Africans’ love for high quality, well-cooked meat. We combine their culinary culture with a mouthwatering Mzansi favourite: free-range ostrich fillet! This will be spiced with NOMU Roast Rub and elevated with dollops of chimichurri, another Argentinian favourite. Served with oven-roasted aubergine wedges and a feta & sun-dried tomato salad.

GOLDEN AUBS
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Spread the Aubergine on a roasting tray. Coat in some cooking spray, ½ the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until softened and crisping up, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
SUNNY SEEDS
When the Aubergine has 10-15 minutes remaining, place a pan over medium heat with the sunflower seeds. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
O-YUM Ostrich
Return the pan to high heat. Pat the Ostrich dry with paper towel and lightly spray with cooking spray. Sear the ostrich until browned, 2-3 minutes a side for medium rare. In the final 30 seconds, spice with the remaining NOMU rub. Remove from the pan and allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
AMAZING ARGENTINIAN MEAL
Plate up the Aubergine wedges. Side with the ostrich, dolloping over the chimichurri. Side with the salad leaves, topped with the feta and sun-dried tomatoes. Sprinkle over the toasted sunflower seeds and drizzle over the balsamic vinegar (to taste). Enjoy, Chef!
