AMAZING ALMONDS
Place the almonds in a pot (large enough for the carrots) over medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pot and roughly chop. Place in a bowl and set aside.
CAN’T BEET THIS
Pat the grated beetroot dry with paper towel. Place in a bowl along with the apple matchsticks, the vinegar, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Set aside for serving.
MAKE THE CUMIN CARROTS
Return the pot to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil, a knob of butter, and the cumin. When hot, add the carrot wedges. Fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened and starting to brown, shifting occasionally. Pour in a splash of warm water, cover with the lid, and leave to simmer for 4-5 minutes or until the carrot wedges are soft.
OSTENTATIOUS OSTRICH
Place a pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the ostrich steak dry with paper towel. When the pan is hot, fry the steak for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned all over and cooked to your preference. (The time frame will yield a medium-rare result.) In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan (reserving the pan juices) and set aside. Rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing and seasoning.
ONE LAST STEP…
When the carrots are cooked, add to the bowl with the toasted almonds. Add the crumbled feta, the rinsed green leaves, and seasoning. Mix until combined.
DRESS THE MEAL FOR DINNER
