Ingredients
- 500g goat meat
- 1 fresh lemon
- Vegetable oil
- Salt
- Fresh thyme
- 2 tbsps all purpose seasoning
- 5 tbsps curry powder
- 1 tsp pimento seeds / all spice berries
- 1 tsp black pepper
- ½ brown onion
- 2 spring onion stalks
- ½ inch ginger
- 1 scotch bonnet pepper
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 bell pepper
- 1.5 cups chopped potatoes or 2 ~medium sized potatoes
Method
Preparing and marinating the meat:
- Wash ~500g of goat meat with lemon and water
- Add seasonings:
- 1 tsp of salt
- Handful of fresh thyme sprigs
- 1 tsp of pimento seeds, crushed
- 1 tbsp of all purpose seasoning
- 2 tbsp of curry powder
- 1 tsp of black pepper
- ½ onion – sliced
- 2 chopped spring onion stalks
- ½ inch of ginger, grated or diced
- ½ 1 scotch bonnet pepper, sliced
- Massage seasonings in the mix, cover with cling film and marinate either (i) overnight; (ii) for 3 hours; (iii) as long as possible based on the amount of time you have available to you
Making the curry:
- Add 1/8 cup of vegetable oil and 2 tbsps of curry powder to a pan and heat on a medium temp for 1-2 minutes (called “burning the curry” for extra flavor and a stronger colour)
- Add 2 cloves of diced garlic and heat for another minute
- Add your marinated meat, allow this to simmer on a medium heat for around 10 minutes with the pot covered
- Boil some hot water, add water over the meat until it is just covered
- Cook on a low to medium temperature for 1.5 hours, stir every 10-15 minutes, if the water reduces too much, add some more boiled water
- Chop up 1.5 cups of potatoes / ~2 medium potatoes into medium size squares, as well as 1 bell pepper of any colour
- Add this to your curry in the final 30 minutes – the potatoes help to thicken the sauce, whilst the bell pepper provides some extra sweetness
- Add 1 tbsp of curry powder, 1 tbsp of all purpose and salt to taste
- Simmer away at a medium temperature for a final 30 minutes
When serving, remove the stems of the thyme.
