Steps:
- If you can find Jamaican curry powder, use it and omit the allspice. If not, use regular curry powder and add the allspice to it. Add 6 tbsp of curry powder, more if you like it more spicy.
- Cut the meat into large chunks, maybe 2-3 inches across. Feel free to add the bones if you have them; you can remove them later.
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Mix in 2 tablespoons of the curry powder and heat until fragrant.
- Pat the meat dry and brown well in the curried oil. Do this in batches and don't overcrowd the pot. It may take a while to do this, maybe 30 minutes or so. Set the browned meat aside in a bowl. (When all the meat is browned, if you have bones, add them and brown them, too.).
- Add the onions and pepper to the pot and sauté, stirring from time to time, until the onions just start to brown, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle some salt over them as they cook. Add the ginger and garlic, mix well and sauté for another 1-2 minutes.
- Put the meat (and bones, if using) back into the pot, along with any juices left in the bowl. Mix well. Pour in the coconut milk and tomatoes and 4-5 tablespoons of the curry powder. Add 4 cups of water. Stir to combine. Add the thyme.
- If you want to cook on the stove, bring to a simmer and let it cook until the meat is falling-apart tender, which will take at least 2 hours. Longer if you have a mature goat. If you want to cook in a crockpot, transfer the mixture to the crockpot and cook on low for 8-10 hours.
- If you have cooked the meat on the stove, add the potatoes when the meat is close to being done - tender but not falling apart. Cook about 30 minutes or until the potatoes are done. Then, skim the fat off the top of the pot if needed.
- If you cooked the meat in the crockpot, boil the potatoes until tender. Skim the layer of fat off the top of the curry, if needed, and mix in the potatoes.
- If you used bones, remove them before serving.
Tips:
- Choose the right goat meat: Select a young goat (less than a year old) for tender meat with less gaminess.
- Use a variety of spices: Curry goat typically includes a blend of spices like curry powder, cumin, turmeric, and paprika. Experiment with different combinations to find your preferred flavor profile.
- Brown the goat meat before cooking: This step helps develop flavor and color in the meat.
- Use coconut milk for a rich and creamy sauce: Coconut milk adds a unique flavor and texture to the curry.
- Simmer the curry for at least 30 minutes: This allows the flavors to meld and develop, resulting in a more flavorful dish.
- Serve curry goat with rice, roti, or your favorite sides: Curry goat is a versatile dish that can be paired with various accompaniments.
Conclusion:
Curry goat is a delicious and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its blend of spices, tender goat meat, and rich coconut milk sauce, it's a dish that is sure to please. Whether you're looking for a traditional Caribbean meal or simply want to try something new, curry goat is definitely worth a try.
