SWEET MASH
Place the pumpkin pieces in a pot of salted water. Bring to the boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter (optional), ¼ of the honey mustard sauce, and a splash of water or milk. Mash with a fork, season, and cover.
TOAST TIME!
Place the pumpkin seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
MUSTARD SAUCE
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the sliced Onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated Garlic and fry until fragrant, 30-60 seconds (shifting constantly). Remove from the heat and stir through the remaining mustard sauce. Loosen with a splash of warm water (if necessary). Season and cover.
SIZZLING STEAK
Place a clean 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 and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
SALAD
In a salad bowl, combine the rinsed green leaves, the halved tomatoes, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
INDULGENT
Plate up the pumpkin mash. Side with the fragrant Ostrich slices and drizzle over any remaining pan juices and the caramelised onion sauce. Serve with the fresh salad sprinkled with the toasted seeds. You're a natural, Chef!
