  1. CARAMELISED ONIONS

    Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the sliced onion until caramelised, 8-10 minutes (shifting occasionally). At the halfway mark, add a sweetener. Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.

  2. READY THE ROUX

    Place a pot over medium heat with 10g of butter. Once melted, vigorously mix in the flour to form a roux. Cook out the flour, 1-2 minutes (stirring constantly). Slowly whisk in the milk and the grated garlic. Once the milk is incorporated, add ½ the grated cheese. Season and remove from the heat. Mix through the potato rounds and the caramelised onions. Add a splash of water or milk (optional) if the sauce is too thick.

  3. ASSEMBLE THE GRATIN

    Lightly grease an ovenproof dish and spread out the potato & caramelised onion mixture. Scatter over the remaining grated cheese. Roast in the hot oven until the potatoes are soft (when poked with a knife), 25-30 minutes. In the final 5 minutes, turn the heat up to grill to brown the cheese.

  4. FRESHNESS

    In a salad bowl, toss together the baby marrow ribbons, the shredded leaves, the lemon juice (to taste), the chopped olives, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Set aside.

  5. OH-YUM OSTRICH

    Place a clean pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the ostrich dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the ostrich until browned, 2-3 minutes per side (for medium-rare). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.

  6. RESTAURANT QUALITY MEAL
