Hands on Time: 20 - 30 minutes
Overall Time: 30 - 45 minutes

- Brown Basmati Rice
- Clarks Kitchen Bourbon BBQ Sauce
- Corn
- Creme Fraiche
- Fresh Chives
- Green Leaves
- Kidney Beans
- NOMU Cajun Rub
- Ostrich
- Ostrich Steak
- Shredded Cabbage & Julienne Carrot

From your kitchen:
- Oil (cooking, olive or coconut)
- Salt & Pepper
- Water
- Paper Towel
- Butter
BOIL THE BASMATI
Rinse the rice and place in a pot over a medium-high heat. Submerge in 200ml of salted water, pop on a lid, and bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and set aside to steam for a further 10 minutes. Drain on completion if necessary.
SNAZZY SIDES
Place the cabbage and carrot in a bowl with a pinch of salt and the white wine vinegar. Using your hands, toss for a full minute to coat. Set aside to pickle until serving. In a bowl, combine the crème fraîche with three-quarters of the chopped chives. Season to taste and set aside for serving.
STICKY BBQ BEANS & Corn
Place a nonstick pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil or knob of butter. When hot, char the Corn for 3-4 minutes, shifting occasionally. Stir in the drained kidney beans, the Bourbon BBQ sauce, and 1 tbsp of water. Simmer for 1-2 minutes until heated through and sticky. Remove from the pan on completion, cover to keep warm, and set aside until serving.
SEAR THE SULTRY Ostrich
Pat the Ostrich steak dry with some paper towel and coat in the Cajun Rub to taste. Wipe down the pan and return it to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the steak for 8-10 minutes, shifting and turning until browned all over and cooked to your preference. (The time frame recommended will yield a medium-rare result.) During the final 1-2 minutes, use a knob of butter to baste the steak. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing. Lightly season the slices.
TEX-MEX PLATE UP!
Dish up a heap of nutty rice and cover in the BBQ beans and Corn. Arrange the steak slices, pickled slaw, and shredded green leaves alongside it. Top with a hearty dollop of the chive crème and garnish with the remaining chopped chives. Time to devour!
