Recipe – Ostrich Teriyaki Steak (serve 2)
                 1 pack Oslinc Ostrich Stir-Fry

                For the Marinade – 1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
                                                   1 tablespoon soy sauce                     
                                                   1 tablespoon sherry (left over from Christmas!)
                                                   1 teaspoon Worcester sauce
                                                   1 teaspoon sugar

Mix the ingredients for the marinade.  Add the stir-fry steak and marinade for 30 minutes or longer if you have the time.

Heat a little oil in a pan.  Quickly seal the meat, then cook for approximately 2  minutes, basting with some of the marinade while cooking.  (Try not to over cook the meat as it is very low in fat and can easily dry out)

Remove the meat to warm plates and serve with noodles and seasonal vegetable.

Lifestyle Changes – Whatever lies ahead 2012  a healthy diet is most important.  Ostrich meat is lower in fat than chicken or turkey, high in protein and can be used in any beef or lamb recipe.  Tip – Instead of cooking with olive oil why not try locally produced rapeseed oil, its less than half the saturated fat
of olive oil.
