Ostrich won-tons served with a sweet
chilli and tomato dressing
Ingredients
220g ostrich fillet
16 pieces won-ton pastry
2 spring onions finely sliced
A pinch of Chinese 5-spice powder
Sauce
2 spring onions finely chopped
125g of cocktail tomatoes
¼ cucumbers finely chopped
Handful chopped chives
75ml sweet chilli sauce
Method
Sear and season the ostrich fillet to a medium-rare.
Put aside and allow to rest and cool. Finely dice the ostrich
meat and mix with the spring onion and 5-spice powder.
To make the won-ton
Place one sheet of the won-ton on the chopping
board and brush with cold water. Place a teaspoon of the ostrich
mix on the won-ton pastry, top with another sheet of the pastry,
seal the edges and make sure there are no air pockets.
To make the sauce
Quarter the cocktail tomatoes and mix with all
the other ingredients. Finally deep fry the won-ton until crisp
and golden brown. Place on top of a bed of baby greens and finish
with a drizzle of sauce.
Enjoy!
