JAMAICAN GOAT CURRY

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.

SLOWBURN GOAT CURRY WITH FRIEND ROTI

Steps:

• Before you make curry, prepare Roti dough:.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, baking powder.
• Make a well in the center and add warm water, melted butter and milk, mixing it with the flour until a soft dough is formed. If dough is still too dry add teaspoons of water till your dough is soft, slightly sticky, but not wet.
• Dust kneading board with flour; place the dough on the board and knead for 2 minutes or so.
• Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for an hour or so.
• To make Curry:.
• Wash the goat and set a pot of water to boil. Enough water to cover the meat. Add goat to boiling water. Let boil till foam comes to top. Skim off till no more arises. (15 - 20 min depending how much goat you put in.).
• Drain and set meat aside to cool.
• In a heavy bottomed pot, cover bottom with olive oil, and heat. When oil shimmers, add chopped onions, and serranos, cook till onions become translucent. Keep heat low to medium, you don't not want to burn onions or you will impart a burnt taste to whole dish.
• When onions are turning golden, add cumin, cinnamon, curry powder, stir and cook for 2 minutes. Then shut off heat.
• Debone goat and slice meat finely. Add all meat back to the onions. (Make sure there are no bone chips, because it will be impossible to find them once you add the potatoes!).
• Add water, bring back up to a boil. Add salt and coconut milk. Cover and let simmer for 20 - 40 minutes. Taste sauce. If it is too hot add more coconut milk. Too bland, you can add a pinch of chili powder. (and I mean a pinch, a 1/4 tsp can ruin an entire pot).
• Now test goat. If meat is tender, add potatoes. If meat is very chewy, wait a bit longer till meat softens up. When meat is ALMOST as tender as you want it, add potatoes and recover pot.
• Potatoes sliced thinly can take 10 - 20 minutes to soften up. Check after 10 minutes.
• If sauce is too thick, add water. Potatoes will absorb water, so keep a close eye on them. ALSO: Don't stir too much, or you will break your potatoes and you will have potato soup.
• When everything is tender, and potatoes are done, add garlic and cilantro. Stir, and cook for 5 minutes. Shut off heat.
• Now its time to make the Roti.
• To make ROTI:.
• Divide the dough into three-inch balls. Dust board. Roll out the dough balls into 6-7 inch circles. Dust each flat as you create them, before you stack them so they do not stick together.
• In a cast iron pan, (or a pan that can get very hot) Add vegetable oil. Test oil by dropping small bit of dough. If it comes to the top as soon as it hits the bottom of the pan, oil is ready. Place flat carefully in oil, it will sizzle and bubble up immediately.
• Push dough under oil to force air into it. It will brown very quickly (30 - 60 seconds) Flip once and place on paper towels to drain. Make all dough at once. Salt them while they are still hot.
• Plating : I enjoy a meal I can sink my teeth, and hands into. I serve this meal in a large shallow bowl. Place the chopped scallions in a bowl off to the side, or sprinkle over the curry. On a separate plate, stack the roti. The idea is to spoon the curry into small bits of the roti and pop into your mouth.
• Serve this with cold beer and lots of napkins. Expect a little splatter but a lot of laughs. This meal is unbelievable good. And your friends and loved ones will never forget it.

The following day, remove the goat meat from the refrigerator and set aside. Place a large soup pot over medium high heat. Add 1/4 cup frying oil. When the oil is hot, add two tablespoons of curry powder to the pot and stir it into the oil. Cook the curry powder for a few minutes, stirring it constantly and taking care that it does not burn. Add the remaining onions and cook them until they are translucent. Add the garlic and the seasoned goat meat to the soup pot and mix well to combine all of the ingredients. Add the stock, the coconut milk and the lime juice. Bring the mixture to a boil, then turn down the heat, cover the pot and simmer the goat meat for 2 or3 hours (or until the meat is very tender), adding water as needed
