Directions
Goat curry is a dish prepared with goat meat, originating from the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. Goat curry is a staple in Southeast Asian cuisine as well as Caribbean cuisine. Cheaper cuts of meat like goat require long slow cooking and strong spices to help tenderise the meat, therefore a curry is the perfect way to enjoy the wonderfully tasty meat.
Why goat curry? I decided to started to shop in Leeds Kirkgate market for meat and fruit & veg as an alternative to the supermarket and as way of seeing different places during the Covid-19 restrictions.
One day while I getting something in the butchers I was stood in front of goat meat; that’s not something you see in the supermarket. I decided to try it for curry. I always pick lamb when i go to an Indian restaurant but it always seems an extravagance curry lamb at home, so goat was a great budget friendly alternative.
For this curry I use regular curry powder, with extra ground cumin, or a more Caribbean feel to the curry add some all-spice to the regular curry powder.
Just remember this not a fast dish, although it only takes around 10-20 minutes to prepare it takes a minimum of 2½ to 3 hours in the oven on on a low heat on the hob to tenderise the goat meat. However, its well worth the wait and with the those aroma floating around the house for 3 hour the household will definitely be hungry when they get to the table.
So it best to prepare some yellow rice and garlic naan breads to feed the hungry hoards.
