  1. ROASTED POTS

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Boil the kettle. Dilute the stock mix with 200ml of boiling water. Spread out the sweet potato chunks on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.

  2. START FRYING

    Pat the ostrich strips dry with paper towel. Place a pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, sear the strips for 1-2 minutes until browned but not cooked through. Remove from the pan on completion, season and set aside. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with another drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the sliced mushrooms for 4-5 minutes until golden, shifting as they colour. Remove from the pan and add to the bowl with the ostrich.

  3. THE STROGANOFF BASE

    Wipe down the pan and return it to a medium heat with another drizzle of oil. When hot, sauté the sliced onion for 2-3 minutes until soft. Add the smoked paprika to taste and sauté for 30-60 seconds until fragrant. Stir through the flour and fry for another 30-60 seconds, shifting constantly. Gradually mix in the diluted stock mix, stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until thickened, stirring occasionally.

  4. WHILE THE SAUCE IS SIMMERING...

    Rinse the leek halves thoroughly and roughly chop. Place another pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, sauté the grated garlic and chopped leeks for 2-3 minutes until soft, shifting frequently. In the final minute, add the peas and toss to heat through.

  5. LAST STRETCH!

    When the sauce has thickened, add in the ostrich strips and fried mushrooms, and simmer for another 1-2 minutes until the ostrich is cooked through. Stir in the crème fraîche for 1-2 minutes until combined. Season to taste.

  6. DINNER IS SERVED

    Plate up the crispy roasted sweet potatoes next to the silky stroganoff. Serve the leek and pea salad on the side, and garnish with the chopped parsley. Voila, Chef!
