  1. TEXI-MEXI RAGÙ

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Boil the kettle. Place a pot over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, sauté the diced onion for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent, shifting occasionally. Add the spice blend and cook for 1-2 minutes, shifting constantly. Stir in the cooked chopped tomato, the stock, 50ml of boiling water, then reduce the heat. Simmer for 10-12 minutes until reduced and thickened, stirring occasionally.

  2. SPICY CORN SALSA

    Place a pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the corn for 3-4 minutes until charred, shifting occasionally. On completion, transfer to a bowl, and add the chopped jalapeños (to taste) and the chopped coriander. Toss to combine, season, and set aside for serving.

  3. (OST)RICH STEAKS

    Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the ostrich steak dry with paper towel. When the pan is hot, fry the steak for 3-4 minutes per side, until browned all over and cooked to your preference. (The time frame recommended will yield a medium-rare result.) In the final 1-2 minutes, use a knob of butter to baste the steak. Remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing. Lightly season.

  4. ROLL ’EM UP

    When the ragù has 2 minutes remaining, stir through the drained black beans to heat through. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt, pepper, and a sweetener of choice (optional). Grease a roasting tray or ovenproof dish with a little butter or oil. Spread the ragù evenly over the tortillas and top with the steak slices. Roll each one up into a tube. Place on the tray or dish and top with the grated cheese. Bake in the hot oven for 4-5 minutes until crisping up and golden.

  5. TIME TO DINE
