  1. WHAT A GEM

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the gem squash on a roasting tray, cut side up. Lightly coat with cooking spray or oil (optional), ½ the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until cooked through and soft, 20-25 minutes. Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 20-25 minutes.

  2. SEAR & SEASON

    When the roast has 10-15 minutes remaining, place a pan over medium-high heat. Pat the Ostrich dry with paper towel and lightly coat with cooking spray and the remaining rub and the garlic. When hot, sear the ostrich until browned, 2-3 minutes per side (for medium-rare). Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.

  3. DILL-LICIOUS SALAD

    In a salad bowl, combine the Cucumber, the yoghurt, ½ the dill, the lemon juice (to taste), and seasoning.

  4. DINNER IS SERVED

    Plate up the roasted gem squash alongside the steak slices. Make a bed of the salad leaves, and the sun-dried tomatoes, and top with the creamy salad. Garnish with a sprinkle of the remaining dill. Divine, Chef!
