Q: Thank you for the newsletter and the website. I absolutely love it. I am planning a dinner where I want to serve ostrich steaks. I have never done this before and I have gone through your site and have not found anything about ostrich. Please assist me with a recipe.

A: Venison, including ostrich, is a rich and flavourful and very low fat, but must be served rare, otherwise it becomes tough and dry. Venison fillet has a lot more flavor than beef fillet, and therefore at Wickedfood Cooking School we like to keep it as simple as possible, see our Fillet of venison
recipe in a previous blog.The Klein Karoo website also has some great recipes.

Wickedfood Cooking School

Sunninghill – (011) 234-3252 sunninghill@wickedfood.co.za

Runs cooking classes throughout the year at its purpose-built cooking studios. Classes are run in the mornings and evenings 7 days a week (subject to a minimum of 12 people). The venue is also popular for corporate events and private functions – team building cooking classes, birthdays, kitchen teas, and dinner parties with a difference.

Our classes are hands-on, where every person gets to participate in the preparation of the dishes. They are also a lot of fun where you not only learn new skills, but get to meet people with similar interests. For corporate groups and teambuilding cooking classes these events are a novel way of creating staff interaction or entertaining clients.
