Carrot WEDGES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Carrot on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). Alternatively, air fry the carrot at 200°C until crispy, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway).
Chickpeas
When the carrots have been roasting for 10-15 minutes, scatter over the Chickpeas and roast for the remaining time until they crisp up.
TOAST
Place the Almonds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
Ostrich
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Ostrich dry with paper towel. Sear the ostrich until browned, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter and the garlic. Remove from the pan and season.
FRESH SALAD
In a bowl, combine the salad leaves, the Cucumber, the almonds, the cheese shavings, the carrots and Chickpeas, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
TIME TO EAT
Plate up the loaded salad, top with the Ostrich slices, and drizzle over the balsamic reduction. Well done, Chef!
