Jamaican Style Curried Goat // How to make authentic Curry Goat 🇯🇲

goat meat

🥗Healthier: chicken

💰Cheaper: pork

Chicken is leaner and more affordable than goat.

scotch bonnet pepper

💰Cheaper: habanero pepper

Habanero offers similar heat and flavor.

curry powder

💰Cheaper: turmeric and cumin

Turmeric and cumin can mimic curry flavor at a lower cost.

allspice

💰Cheaper: mixed spice blend

Mixed spice can substitute for allspice in a pinch.

Wash the goat meat thoroughly.

Season the goat meat with salt, jerk seasoning, and all-purpose seasoning.

Blend garlic, onion, thyme, and scotch bonnet pepper to create a green seasoning.

Mix the green seasoning with the goat meat and allow it to marinate for at least 1 hour.

After marinating, heat cooking oil in a Dutch pot and add curry powder to toast it.

Add chopped garlic and onion to the pot with the toasted curry powder.

Add the marinated goat meat to the pot and mix well to coat the meat with flavors.

Cover the pot and cook on low heat for about 5 minutes to allow the meat to create its own juices.

Add hot water to the pot to prevent dropping the cooking temperature, then cover and cook on low heat for about 45 minutes to 1 hour until the meat is tender.

After 45 minutes, check the meat; it should be tender and juicy.

Add chopped carrots, potatoes, pimento peppers, scallion, and a whole scotch bonnet pepper to the pot.

Pour in coconut milk and mix well.

Taste and adjust seasoning with salt if needed.

Cover the pot and cook for another 10 minutes until the potatoes are cooked.
