1

Cut goat meat into pieces and season with sea salt, curry powder, and Caribbean green seasoning. Let it marinate overnight or for at least 2 hours.

2

Heat 1.5 tablespoons of olive oil in a large heavy pot over high flame.

3

Add 1.5 tablespoons of brown sugar to the pot and allow it to melt until it turns dark amber in color.

4

Once the sugar is dark amber, add the seasoned goat meat to the pot and brown it, making sure to coat the meat with the melted sugar.

5

Wash the goat meat with the juice of 2 limes and cool water before seasoning.

6

Turn the heat down to medium, cover the pot, and let the goat cook for about 10-15 minutes to allow it to release its natural juices.

7

Increase the heat to high to burn off the liquid that has formed, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

8

Add 3.5 to 4 cups of water to the pot, using the same bowl where the goat was marinated to pick up any remaining seasoning.

9

Add coconut powder (or coconut milk) to the pot and bring the mixture to a boil.

10

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for at least 2.5 hours, checking for tenderness of the goat meat.
