BEGIN WITH THE BATTER
In a bowl, combine the flour mix with a pinch of salt. Slowly pour in 100ml of warm water and whisk until a thin, but not watery, consistency - you may not need all the water! Cover and rest for at least 30 minutes. Once rested, mix in 1 tbsp of olive oil and the chopped oregano.
PICKLE & MARINADE
In a bowl, combine the juice from 1 lemon wedge, a sweetener, and seasoning. Toss through the sliced Onion and set aside. Pat the Ostrich dry with paper towel. In a separate bowl, combine the ostrich fillet, the ground cumin, ½ the yoghurt, and seasoning. Set aside.
PINE NUTS & DRESSIN’
Place the pine nuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 3-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside. Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the grated garlic and fry until fragrant, 1 minute (shifting constantly). Remove from the pan and place in a bowl. Mix through the remaining yoghurt and seasoning.
FRY THE VEG & Ostrich
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the baby marrow discs and fry until charred, 3-5 minutes (flipping halfway). Remove from the pan, season, and cover. Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the marinated 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.
FLIPPIN’ PANCAKES
Return the pan, wiped clean, to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, pour in ⅓ of the socca batter. Tilt the pan in a circular motion so that the batter evenly coats the pan. Cook until the bottom has browned, 1-2 minutes. Flip and cook, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan. Repeat with the remaining batter to make 3 pancakes.
STACK IT ALL UP!
Plate up the socca pancakes. Smear with ½ the garlicky yoghurt and top with the rinsed green leaves, the baby marrow, the pickled onions, and the Ostrich slices. Loosen the remaining garlicky yoghurt with water in 5ml increments until a drizzling consistency and drizzle over the loaded pancakes. Sprinkle over the pine nuts.
