ROASTED VEG
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the butternut pieces on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.
CURRY BASE & RAITA
Place a pot (big enough for the curry) over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced onion for 1-2 minutes until translucent. Add the grated ginger, the drained Chickpeas and ½ of the korma curry paste and fry for 30-60 seconds until fragrant, stirring constantly. Add the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 5-6 minutes until the curry has thickened. Using a small bowl, combine the coconut yoghurt and the grated cucumber. Season to taste and set aside.
MORE ADDITIONS
When the butternut is cooked, remove from the oven and stir it through the curry. Add any remaining curry paste (to taste and if you fancy more spice!). Mix through ½ of the chopped coriander and the shredded Spinach. Simmer for a further minute until the spinach is wilted. Remove from the heat on completion and season to taste. Cover to keep warm.
SIZZLING STEAK
Place a pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Ostrich steak dry with a paper towel. When the pan is hot, fry the steak for 6-8 minutes, shifting and turning as it colours until browned all over and cooked to your preference. (The time frame recommended will yield a medium-rare result.) Remove from the pan on completion and set aside. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing. Lightly season the slices.
POPPIN’ Poppadoms
Return the pan, wiped clean, over a medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, shallow fry the Poppadom for 30 seconds per side. As soon as the poppadom starts curling, use a spatula or tongs to flip it over and flatten it out. Keep flipping and flattening until golden and puffed up.
CURRY CRAVINGS SATISFIED
Spoon up some glorious veg curry into a bowl and lay over the juicy steak slices. Finish off with dollops of the coconut raita and side with the crispy Poppadom. Garnish with the remaining chopped coriander. Time to dive in!
