  1. PLUMP IT UP

    Boil the kettle. Submerge the peas in boiling water until plump, 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. KEEPING IT FRESH

    In a salad bowl, combine the chimichurri, a drizzle of oil, the lemon juice, and seasoning. Add the baby marrow ribbons, the plumped peas, ½ the sunflower seeds, and the shredded green leaves. Crumble in the drained Feta and toss to combine.

  3. 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, 2-3 minutes per side (for medium-rare). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter and the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan, reserving any pan juices, and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.

  4. DIG IN!

    Plate up the juicy Ostrich slices drizzled with any reserved pan juices. Serve with the baby marrow & chimichurri salad and sprinkle over the rest of the sunflower seeds. Cheers, Chef!
