Ostrich steaks cook quickly, so be mindful not to overcook them. For a richer sauce, consider adding a tablespoon of Dijon mustard along with the crème fraîche. If you don't have Calvados, apple juice can be substituted, but the flavor will be different.

04
StepPour beef stock into the skillet and bring to a boil over high heat. (3 minutes)
05
StepBoil for a few minutes until slightly reduced, then lower the heat to medium-low and stir in crème fraîche. (2 minutes)
06
StepCook and stir for 2 minutes, then pour in Calvados and season with salt and pepper to taste. (2 minutes)
07
StepSeason each ostrich steak with pepper to taste. Spoon the sauce over the steaks to serve.
