Choose your portion size.

  1. LEMONY MASH

    Place the potato pieces in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter (optional), the lemon juice, and a splash of water or milk (optional). Mash with a fork, season, and cover.

  2. SOUR CREAM SAUCE

    In a small bowl, loosen ½ the sour cream with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency. Season.

  3. Feta SALAD

    In a bowl, toss together the Carrot ribbons, the rinsed salad leaves, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Crumble over the drained feta and set aside.

  4. BUTTER-BASTED 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). In the final 30 seconds, baste with a knob of butter and the NOMU rub. Remove from the heat, stir through the remaining sour cream, and season.

  5. IT ALL COMES TOGETHER

    Plate up the lemon mash and top with the creamy Ostrich chunks. Serve the carrot salad alongside and drizzle with the loosened sour cream.
