To make an Indian curry goat, you'll need a few key ingredients and follow a series of steps. Here's a recipe to guide you:
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds (about 1 kg) goat meat, cut into small pieces
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 onions, finely chopped
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
- 2 tomatoes, chopped
- 2 green chilies, slit lengthwise (adjust according to your spice preference)
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust according to your spice preference)
- Salt to taste
- 1 cup coconut milk
- Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish
Instructions:
1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
2. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.
3. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir and cook for another minute until the raw smell disappears.
4. Add the goat meat pieces to the pot and cook until they are browned on all sides. This will help seal in the flavors and juices.
5. Add the chopped tomatoes and green chilies. Cook for a few minutes until the tomatoes soften.
6. In a small bowl, mix together the curry powder, turmeric powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, garam masala, red chili powder, and salt.
7. Sprinkle the spice mixture over the meat and vegetables in the pot. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
8. Pour in the coconut milk and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
9. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the curry simmer gently for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the goat meat is tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and to ensure even cooking.
10. Once the meat is tender and the flavors have melded together, taste the curry and adjust the salt and spices according to your preference.
11. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves before serving.
12. Serve the Indian curry goat hot with steamed rice or naan bread.
Note: Indian curry goat is traditionally slow-cooked to achieve tender meat, but you can also use a pressure cooker or an Instant Pot to reduce the cooking time. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cooking meat in your specific device.
