Almond milk reduces calories while still providing creaminess.

Marinate goat meat with spices, garlic, and ginger for at least 1 hour.

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering.

Add sliced onions and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in the marinated goat meat and cook until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes.

Add chopped tomatoes and cook until they break down, about 5 minutes.

Pour in coconut milk and bring to a simmer, cooking for 20-30 minutes until the meat is tender.

Add rice to the pot and stir to combine with the meat and sauce.

Pour in enough water to cover the rice by about an inch, adding salt and bay leaves.

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover the pot.

Cook for 20-25 minutes until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for 10 minutes.

Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in peas and carrots.

Garnish with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
