SWEET SWEET PUMPKIN
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the pumpkin pieces 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.
COOK THE QUINOA
Rinse the quinoa and place in a pot. Submerge in 200ml of water, place over a medium-high heat, and bring to a simmer. Cook for 12-15 minutes until the quinoa is fluffy and the tails have popped out, adding more water if required during the cooking process. On completion, drain if necessary and return to the pot. Cover with a lid and allow to stand off the heat for 5 minutes.
SALSA & Hummus
Combine the white wine vinegar and 60ml of warm water in a bowl. Add 1 tsp of a sweetener of choice and whisk until dissolved. Add in the chopped pickled peppers and diced Cucumber. Toss together and set aside to pickle until serving. Combine the hummus with 1 tsp of olive oil and three quarters of the chopped parsley. Mix in water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency. Season to taste and set aside for serving.
SPICED Ostrich
When the pumpkin has 10-15 minutes to go, place a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Ostrich steak dry with some paper towel. When the pan is hot, fry the steak for 6-8 minutes, shifting as it colours, until browned all over and cooked to your preference. (The time frame recommended will yield a medium-rare result.) During the final 1-2 minutes, evenly sprinkle over the Spice Mix and add another drizzle of oil. Use the pan juices to baste the steak for the remaining cooking time. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing. Lightly season the slices.
COLOURFUL QUINOA
Just before serving, toss the roast pumpkin pieces and pickled salsa through the cooked quinoa. Use or lose the pickling liquid as you’d like!
SINK INTO HEALTH HEAVEN
