Choose your portion size.
Ostrich
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Ostrich dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the ostrich until browned, 2-3 minutes per side (for medium-rare). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter and the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan with all the pan juices and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
BEANS
Return the pan, wiped down if necessary, to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the beans until lightly charred, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and season.
PITA
Place a clean pan over medium heat. When hot, toast the pita/s until heated through, 30-60 seconds per side. Alternatively, place it on a plate and heat up in the microwave, 30-60 seconds. Cut in half to make the pockets.
TIME TO EAT
Dress the green leaves with lemon juice (to taste) and a drizzle of olive oil. Spread the avocado hummus inside the pita pockets, then add the steak with some of the pan juices and sprinkle the onions on top. Serve alongside a bed of dressed leaves, topped with the charred green beans, and crumble over the Feta. Enjoy, Chef!
