Wash goat meat with lemon juice and water; let it sit for a while, then drain using a colander.

Heat vegetable oil in a pan.

Add curry powder, ground coriander, and ground cumin to the oil; stir to combine.

Gradually add water, one cup at a time, to create a smooth paste with the spices.

Add the goat meat to the curry base, ensuring it is evenly coated with the spices.

Add bay leaves, spring onion, crushed garlic, grated ginger, scotch bonnet pepper, and chopped white onion to the pan; mix well.

Add more water to just cover the goat meat; cover the pan with a lid.

Slow cook for about 2 hours, checking every 40 minutes.

After 30 minutes, add salt and a little sugar to the curry.

After cooking, check for doneness; the meat should be tender and the oil should separate from the sauce.

Finish by sprinkling chopped coriander on top before serving.
