  1. PARBOILED POTATOES

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the rinsed baby potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain, season, and set aside.

  2. SMASH, THEN ROAST

    Spread the parboiled potatoes on a lightly greased roasting tray. Using a fork, gently press down, splitting the skin but keeping them in one piece. Drizzle with oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 15-20 minutes.

  3. BROWNED Ostrich

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Ostrich dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the ostrich until browned, 1-2 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.

  4. GOLDEN ONIONS & BBQ SAUCE

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, fry the sliced Onion until soft and turning golden, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the browned Ostrich, the BBQ sauce, and a splash of water. Fry until fragrant and slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat and season.

  5. SIMPLE SALAD

    In a salad bowl, toss together the rinsed green leaves, the diced Cucumber, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.

  6. WHAT A GREAT PLATE

    Plate up the crispy potatoes and the loaded Ostrich with all the pan juices. Side with the fresh salad and garnish with the chopped parsley. Well done, Chef!
