  1. OODLES OF NOODLES

    Boil the kettle. Fill a pot with the boiling water, add a pinch of salt, and place over a high heat. Once bubbling rapidly, cook the noodles for 6-8 minutes until tender. Drain on completion and run under cold water to stop the cooking process. Toss through some oil to prevent sticking and set aside.

  2. TOASTY SEEDS

    Place the sesame seeds in a nonstick pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until the white ones are lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion.

  3. MUSHROOMS MAYHEM

    Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the quartered mushrooms for 3-5 minutes until soft and golden, shifting as they colour. Remove from the pan on completion and season to taste.

  4. BIG BIRD

    Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Ostrich stroganoff dry with some paper towel. When the pan is hot, fry the ostrich for 30-60 seconds per side, until browned all over and cooked to your preference. (The time frame recommended will yield a medium-rare result.) Remove from the pan and season.

  5. PREP & SAUCE

    Separate the leaves of the trimmed pak choi and rinse well. Slice the stems and cut the leaves in half lengthways. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the pak choi stems and grated Ginger for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened. Add the Gochujang (to taste), sesame oil, tomato paste, soy sauce, a sweetener of choice (to taste), and the pak choi leaves. Simmer for 1-2 minutes until the pak choi leaves are wilted, shifting occasionally. Remove from the heat, add the cooked ostrich and mix to combine. Just before serving, toss the cooked mushrooms through the noodles and season.

  6. NOODS READY TO SERVE!

    Dish up the silky soba noodles & mushrooms and spoon over the saucy Asian veggies and Ostrich. Sprinkle over the chopped coriander and the toasted sesame seeds. Beautiful, Chef!
