TOAST THE SESAME SEEDS
Boil the kettle. Place the sesame seeds in a large pan or wok over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.
KEEPING IT SOBA
Place a pot for the soba noodles over a high heat. Fill with boiling water, add a pinch of salt, and bring back up to the boil. Then, pop in the soba noodles and cook for 6-8 minutes until al dente. Drain on completion and run under some cold water to stop the cooking process. Return to the pot, toss through some oil to prevent sticking, and set aside.
FRY THE STROGANOFF
While the noodles are cooking, return the pan or wok to a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, brown the ostrich for 1-2 minutes until cooked through, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside. Lower the heat to medium, return the pan or wok to the stove, and add another drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the grated ginger and half of the Asian slaw for 1-2 minutes until wilted but still crunchy. Stir in the Sweet Sesame-Soy and 50ml of water. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced. Remove from the heat on completion and add in the cooked noodles and ostrich. Toss to combine and season to taste.
ONE STEP TO GO...
Just before serving, place the cucumber matchsticks and remaining Asian slaw in a bowl with a squeeze of lime juice. Toss together with some lime zest and seasoning to taste.
TASTE BUD PARTY TIME!
