YOU SAY POTAYTO, I SAY POTAHTO
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Line a baking tray with tinfoil and lightly grease. Add the halved Potato, cut-side up. Coat in oil and season. Bake in the hot oven until the flesh is soft and the skin is crispy, 30-35 minutes. In the final 5 minutes, sprinkle over the grated cheese.
ZINGY SALAD
In a bowl, combine the vinegar, 5ml of sweetener, and 15ml of water. Add the sliced Onion, toss until coated, and set aside to pickle. Just before serving, drain the pickling liquid, and toss the pickled onion with the rinsed salad leaves, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
IT’S MINCE, MATE
Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced Onion until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Caramelise until browned, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally).
FLAVA FLAV
When the mince has browned, add the NOMU rub and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the tomato passata and 100ml of water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer until the sauce has reduced and thickened, 10-12 minutes (stirring occasionally). In the final 3-5 minutes, add the drained beans. Stir through a sweetener and seasoning.
GRAB A HEARTY HELPING
Plate up the cheesy baked Potato. Sprinkle over the chopped jalapeño (to taste) and serve alongside the Ostrich con carne. Dollop over the sour cream and serve the fresh salad on the side. Garnish with the chopped coriander. Dig in, Chef!
