FLUFFY RICE
Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 200ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.
BROWN THE 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 (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.
FRY FOR FLAVOUR
Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, fry the sliced Onion until soft, 3-4 minutes. Add the NOMU rub and the browned Ostrich. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Pour in the cooked chopped tomato, ½ the sliced chilli, and 100ml of water. Simmer until the sauce has reduced and the ostrich is cooked through, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat, add a sweetener (to taste), and season.
ZESTY SALAD
In a salad bowl, combine the shredded leaves with the Cucumber half-moons, the lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Set aside.
