Ingredients

  • butter
  • 225 g (8 oz) ostrich fillet, diced
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • small bunch of spring onions, chopped
  • 225 g (8 oz) potatoes, diced and parboiled
  • 100 g (4 oz) pumpkin, diced and parboiled
  • 1 red pepper, diced and blanched
  • 1 green pepper, diced and blanched
  • 1 yellow pepper, diced and blanched
  • 4 eggs
  • HOLLANDAISE SAUCE
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • juice of 1 orange
  • juice of 1 grapefruit
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 275 g (10 oz) warm clarified butter
  • GARNISH
  • 1 orange, cut into segments
  • 1 lemon, cut into segments
  • 1 pink grapefruit, cut into segments

Directions

1

Heat a little butter in a pan and saute the diced ostrich. Season, then add the spring onions, potatoes, pumpkin and peppers and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

2

Meanwhile make the hollandaise sauce. First put the fruit juices into a pan, bring to the boil and reduce by half. Put into a large heatproof bowl with the eeg yolks and whisk over a pan of hot water until frothy. Dribble in the butter very slowly, whisking continuously until it is thick and creamy (if it becomes too thick, add a drop of water).

3

Poach the eggs. To serve, pile the ostrich hash on to 4 warm plates, top each with a poached egg and a little hollandaise sauce, and garnish with orange, lemon and grapefruit segments.
