From your kitchen:

NOT MUSHROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, add the quartered mushrooms and the sliced onion. Fry for 4-5 minutes until soft and browned, shifting occasionally. In the final minute, add the grated garlic and ½ the rinsed thyme. Season, remove from the pan, and cover to keep warm.
SUCCULENT FILLET
Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the ostrich fillet dry with paper towel. When the pan is hot, fry the fillet for 2-3 minutes per side or until browned all over and cooked to your preference. (The time frame recommended will yield a medium-rare result.) In the final 1-2 minutes, use a knob of butter or a drizzle of oil and the rub to baste the fillet. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for at least 5 minutes. Slice and lightly season.
DRESS HER UP
While the fillet is resting, pick the remaining thyme. Drain and rinse the beans. Rinse the salad leaves. Roughly dice the tomato. In a salad bowl, combine the rinsed salad leaves, the drained beans, the diced tomato, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Loosen the pesto with 10ml of oil and 10ml of warm water until a drizzling consistency.
THYME TO DINE!
Plate up the browned mushrooms. Side with the bean salad. Serve with the succulent ostrich slices drizzled with the loosened pesto. Garnish with the picked thyme. Stylish, Chef!
