Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp sunflower oil divided
  • 700 g (1.5lb) diced goat (or lamb if you prefer)
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 tsp minced ginger
  • 3 tbsp mild curry powder
  • 1 tsp ground pimento all spice
  • 0.5 tsp white pepper
  • Chopped Scotch bonnet or other chilli to taste
  • 400 g (14oz) can chopped tomatoes
  • 400 ml (1.7) cups lamb or chicken stock
  • 6 sprigs of fresh thyme sprigs
  • 400 g (14oz) tin black-eyed beans, drained and rinsed
  • Small bunch of coriander chopped
  • Lime juice to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat 1 tbsp of sunflower oil in a pot and brown the meat in batches and set the meat aside.
  2. Add 1 tbsp of oil to the same pot and sauté the onion for 5-10 minutes. Then add the meat back into the pot.
  3. Mix in the garlic, ginger, curry powder, pimento and white pepper and chilli until the meat is well coated.
  4. Stir in the chopped tomatoes, stock and thyme leaves, bring to the boil, cover and then reduce to a simmer for about 2 hrs (if your goat meat is tough then you might need an extra 30 mins or so) 
  5. In the last 30 mins of cooking add the beans and cook uncovered till done.
  6. Serve with some rice, or roti, coleslaw and plenty of hot pepper sauce.

Notes

  • Although you can use any curry powder you like I suggest you use a really good Jamaican Curry Powder.
  • Do brown the meat in small batches over high heat. Big batches cool down the pot making browning harder.
  • This Jamaican Curry Goat recipe has beans instead of the more commonly used potato. Simply omit the beans and add potato chunks in the last 20 mins of cooking.
  • Here are a few suggestions of what to serve with your Jamaican Goat Curry.
  • Instant Pot Brown Rice.
  • Fried Plantains.
  • Instant Pot Rice.
  • Rice and peas.
