BUTTER TIMES TWO
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the butternut chunks on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, season, and spread out evenly. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes. Place the drained butter beans on a separate roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Spread out in a single layer and set aside.
ORANGE THE PICKLE
Place the sliced onion in a bowl and pour over the vinaigrette. Season to taste, toss until coated, and set aside to pickle.
IT’S THE HALFWAY MARK!
When the butternut reaches the halfway mark, give the tray a shift. Pop in the tray of beans and cook for the remaining time. On completion, the beans should be crisping up and the butternut should be cooked through and caramelised.
JUICY OSTRICH GOULASH
When the roast has 5 minutes remaining, pat the ostrich dry with paper towel. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the ostrich for 4-5 minutes until browned, shifting as it colours. Remove from the pan and rest for 2-3 minutes before serving. Season to taste.
FINISHING TOUCHES
Drain the vinaigrette from the pickled onion into a salad bowl. Mix in 1 tsp of olive oil into the vinaigrette until combined. Add the rinsed salad leaves, the cucumber half-moons, and the chopped pickled peppers to the bowl. Toss until coated.
FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD!
Pile up the tangy salad and cover in roast butternut and butter beans. Scatter over the drained pickled onion (to taste) and the ostrich chunks. Sprinkle over the sesame seeds. Delish!
