PEANUT SAUCE
Whisk the brown sugar and soy sauce mix in a bowl, until the sugar has dissolved. Add the peanut butter, the grated garlic, and the sesame & chilli mix (to taste). Mix until emulsified.
BUBBLE IT UP
Bring a pot of salted water to boil for the noodles. Cook the noodles until al dente, 7-8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 tbsp of the cooking water, and rinse in cold water. Mix the reserved cooking water into the peanut sauce until silky.
WHILE THE NOODLES ARE COOKING...
Place a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the ostrich strips dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the ostrich until browned but not cooked through, 1-2 minutes (shifting occasionally). Toss through the sliced cabbage and the grated carrot until heated but still crunchy, 1-2 minutes (shifting occasionally). Toss through the peanut sauce until coated. Season and remove from the heat.
