  1. READY YOUR AUTUMN VEG

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the butternut chunks on a tinfoil-lined roasting tray and coat in oil. Toss through the maple syrup, the cinnamon, and some seasoning – all to taste. Spread out the beetroot chunks on a separate roasting tray. Coat in oil, the juice of 1 orange wedge, and seasoning. Nestle in the whole, unpeeled garlic clove and pop both trays in the hot oven to roast for 30-35 minutes.

  2. CRUNCHY FLAKES

    Place the flaked almonds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until golden brown, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.

  3. HIP, HIP, HALFWAY!

    When the veggies reach the halfway mark, toss through the rinsed thyme leaves. Return to the oven for the remaining roasting time. On completion, they should be cooked through and crisping up.

  4. THE SALADY THINGS

    Place the rinsed green leaves in a bowl and toss through the balsamic vinegar, a drizzle of oil, and some seasoning. Crumble in ½ of the drained feta, toss again, and set aside for serving.

  5. SEAR THE STEAK

    Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the ostrich steak dry with paper towel. When the pan is hot, fry the steak for 8-10 minutes, shifting and turning as it colours until browned all over and cooked to your preference. (The time frame recommended will yield a medium-rare result.) During the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to rest for 5 minutes. Remove the roast veggies from the oven and toss together. Once the ostrich has finished resting, thinly slice and lightly season.

  6. TIME FOR NOURISHMENT

    In a bowl, make a bed of dressed leaves and cover in the aromatic butternut and beetroot. Top with the juicy slices of ostrich and crumble over the remaining feta. Garnish with the toasted almond flakes and an orange wedge. Welcome to dinner at Matloha’s!
