Place the almonds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
BERRY & WINE SAUCE
In a small saucepan, add the mixed berries, 10ml sweetener (to taste), the wine, the grated garlic, and ½ the rinsed rosemary. Using a potato masher or fork, lightly crush the berries to break their skins. Place over medium heat and simmer until slightly reduced, 7-8 minutes. Cover and set aside.
CRISPY CHICKPEAS
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, toast the drained chickpeas until golden and crispy, 6-8 minutes (shifting occasionally). If they start to pop out, use a lid to rein them in. Remove from the pan and season.
CHARRED GREEN BEANS
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the halved green beans until starting to char, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan, add to the bowl of chickpeas, season, and cover.
CRUNCHY SALAD
To the bowl of green beans and chickpeas, add the drained feta, ½ the toasted almonds, and the rinsed leaves. Toss to combine and set aside.
TENDER OSTRICH
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the ostrich steak dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the steak until browned, 2-3 minutes per side (for medium-rare). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with the remaining rosemary and a knob of butter. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
