  1. COOK THE BULGUR

    Boil the kettle. Place the bulgur wheat in a pot with 150ml [300ml]|#7DA0D7 of boiling water, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Simmer until cooked through, 6-8 minutes. Drain if necessary, fluff with a fork, and set aside.

  2. DRESSED Tomato

    In a small bowl, combine the Tomato, ½ the Parsley, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Set aside.

  3. GOLDEN SEEDS

    Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. FRY THE MEAT

    Return the pan to 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). In the final 30 seconds, baste with a knob of butter and the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan and season.

  5. BOWL IT UP

    Plate up the bulgur. Serve with the seared Ostrich, the Cucumber and the herby tomato. Side with the hummus and tzatziki. Garnish with the remaining parsley and the sunflower seeds. Great work, Chef!
