For the Red Wine Sauce: Preheat a large pot on medium heat. Add oil. Add shallots and garlic and cook until translucent. Add sachet.
Recipe
Deglaze pan with red wine, reduce on low heat to 2 cups. Add veal stock; bring to boil then simmer, allowing flavors to properly meld. If consistency is too light, a small amount of roux may be added to thicken the sauce. Strain the sauce through a chinois into desired holding container. Add salt and pepper to taste.
To finish:
Mix breadcrumbs with chervil and thyme in a bowl; set aside. Preheat oven to 375 F. Salt and pepper ostrich. Place ostrich fans on a hot grill. Grill lightly on both sides for a few minutes. Remove from grill and generously brush with Dijon mustard.
Roll ostrich fans in breadcrumb mixture, coating thoroughly. Place onto baking rack in oven for 7 minutes. Remove ostrich; let set for 5 minutes.
Slice ostrich against the grain. Place around potatoes. Drizzle red wine sauce around the meat and potatoes.
