Curry Goat Recipe
  

Ingredients

1 lb goat meat, cubed
1 lime
1 onion, chopped
2 tbsp green seasoning
4 tsp masala (divided)
2 tbsp curry (divided)
1/2 tsp saffron (tumeric)
4 cloves garlic (divided)
7 leaves culantro, chopped
4 sprigs chive, chopped
1 tbsp soy sauce (optional)
1 tbsp coconut powder
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste

 

Method

1.      Wash the meat with the lime and drain

2.      add salt, green seasoning, 2 tsp masala, saffron (tumeric) powder and 1 tbsp curry powder

3.      add the onion and two cloves of chopped garlic then the culantro (chadon beni)and

 chive. Mix well. Leave to marinate for at least one hour.

Tip: You can use this time wisely and boil your rice or knead flour for bake or roti, while the meat marinates

4.      Heat the oil and saute the other 2 cloves of chopped garlic

5.      In about 1/2 cup of water, mix 2 tsp of masala and 1 tbsp of curry powder. Add to the sauteed garlic and allow to cook for about one minute.

6.      add the marinated goat and mix in the curry thoroughly.
Then add the soy sauce (optional)

7.      Allow to cook for about 5 minutes or when you see the water is drying down

8.      Add the coconut powder

9.      Then add enough water to cover the meat and pressure cook for 15 minutes.

Tip: To avoid burning the meat, here’s what my mom showed me…When you add the water heft the pressure cooker and remember it’s weight. Then as you cook, periodically heft the weight and shake the pressure cooker to test if there is any water remaining.

10. After about 15 minutes check the meat for tenderness. By this time it should be about half done. Top up with water and pressure cook for another 15 minutes or until the water has evaporated (Similar to the amount of water you had before you started to pressure cook the goat)

Enjoy with roti or some dumplings and provision or if you wish - some hot rice!!

Yummy!!
