Spicy Ostrich Roast image

I bought 800g Ostrich meat the other day and decided to make roast with it. I thought I would try something a little different as I have not done an ostrich in the oven that was not stuffed and then wrapped in bacon, so it still came out super tender as it should be. Ostrich is a very lean meat with virtually no fat on it, so over cooking it is a disaster. Prep time does not include sitting time.

Time 55m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

olive oil
800 g ostrich roast
2 teaspoons coriander seeds
2 teaspoons cracked black pepper
2 teaspoons juniper berries
1 teaspoon cardamom seed
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 cup dry red wine
50 ml port wine
3 tablespoons red currant jelly
1/2 water
2 teaspoons beef stock granules
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons bisto, gravy granules

Steps:

  • Note: You can use cornflour to thicken I just prefer the taste with the gravy granules.
  • Crush spices and garlic using a blender or mortar and pestle.
  • Rub mixture all over ostrich to cover completely, leave to sit for 1-2 hours.
  • Heat some olive oil in a large fry pan, add ostrich and cook until browned all over, transfer ostrich to an over proof dish, roast in pre-heated oven 200 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes.
  • Remove and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes before carving.
  • Sauce.
  • Combine all ingredients in a saucepan except the butter and gravy granules, bring to the boil and reduce liquid to approximately 1 cup.
  • Whisk in butter and thicken with gravy granules, serve over meat.
  • Serves 3-4.
  • To Serve: I served mine on a big serving platter accompanied by a mix of wild mushrooms, onions done in butter and some fresh herbs, roasted pumpkin and sauteed cabbage.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I made this recipe with a milder sauce. The ostrich meat was still tender and flavorful, and the sauce was delicious. I would definitely make this again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my ostrich meat was tough and dry. The sauce was also bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.
