Best Ostrich Steaks With Prawns And A Roasted Garlic Sauce Recipes
MARINATED OSTRICH STEAK
We raise ostriches on our farm on the eastern shore of Maryland, so we have an abundance of meat on hand to use for a variety of dishes. It's a lean meat that tastes similar to beef. My mother-in-law gave me this marinade recipe, and I've used it with a number of meats.

Steps:
- In a resealable plastic bag or shallow glass container, combine the first 10 ingredients; mix well. Add meat to marinade and turn to coat. Seal bag or cover container; refrigerate overnight, turning meat occasionally. Drain and discard marinade. Broil or grill, covered, over medium heat for 5 minutes. Turn and cook 6-8 minutes longer or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; and well done, 170°).

OSTRICH FILLET STEAKS WITH CAFE DE PARIS BUTTER
This sounds like a lot of work but it is very easy and tastes great over grilled meats. I put this on beef, bison, lamb it is delicious without overpowering the natural flavour of the meat. Cafe De Paris butter can be stored in the freezer for months (not that it lasts that long in our house) so don't worry about the recipe amount. I made this last night as I was out of cafe de paris butter and I was only cooking 2 ostrich steaks. It is great because once you've made it, you have it on hand any time your grilling meat and want something quick to go with it. I would say as an estimate it would be enough for 8-10 steaks depending on cut, by that I mean you will use more for a big T-bone than a fillet medallion.

Steps:
- Remove butter from refrigerator 30 minutes before using.
- Beat butter until very soft and aerated. Combine all remaining ingredients (except the butter) in food processor and process until well pureed.
- Add Puree to butter and combine well.
- Either on baking paper or cling film, roll butter into a log about 4-5cm in diameter, twist the ends to seal, if using baking paper I use rubber bands to make sure butter holds shape.
- Place in freezer until set, remove cut into slices and place on top of meat, either leave it like this, as the heat from the meat will melt it. I like to place my meat under the grill and melt butter over until slightly coloured.
- Remember.
- If your not going to be using the butter all at once you will want to make a few logs so you can freeze separately and take out as needed. Remove from freezer a couple of hours before needed and transfer to fridge. That way the butter will readily melt under the grill.
- For the Ostrich.
- Season steaks lightly with salt and pepper. Add steaks to a hot pan and sear each side. Either finish cooking in pan or under grill 4-5 minutes a side for medium rare/ medium or until cooked as desired.
- Note: Ostrich meat should not be overcooked as it is very lean meat and will become quite tough.
- Remove from oven or pan and allow to rest 5 minutes. Slice steaks into about 5-6 slices each steak place in oven proof pan, place a slice of butter on top and grill about 4 inches from heat until butter has melted.
- To serve arrange ostrich on plate pour butter over. I served this dish with fresh vegetables with hollandaise sauce and individual baked potato dauphinoise.

OSTRICH STEAKS WITH CALVADOS SAUCE
Ostrich and venison are the two meats with the lowest fat contents. Try this for a simple change. Gentle cooking is best (cooking too fast will turn the steaks leathery), and we aim for rare or medium. I like mine rare, and turn when the outside begins (just) to caramelise. A definite hit with my guests every time I do it. If you can get Creme Fraiche then fine, but try to avoid any CF that is labeled 'light'. This curdles when heated. You can thicken the sauce if you like by using less stock. Serve with rice or potatoes and some tasty vegetables.

Steps:
- Heat the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the ostrich steaks in the hot butter until the outside is just about to be crisp, shown by darkening patches as with a beef steak, about 2 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) for rare. Remove the ostrich steaks from the pan, and keep warm.
- Pour the beef stock into the skillet, and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil for a few minutes until slightly reduced, then lower the heat to medium-low, and stir in the creme fraiche. Cook and stir 2 minutes, then pour in the Calvados, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Season each ostrich steak with pepper to taste. Spoon the sauce over the steaks to serve.

SPICY OSTRICH ROAST
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.
