Meaty Goat Curry
Serves 4

1kg Diced Goat
6 Whole Star Anise
2 Whole sticks of cinnamon
5 Green Cardamom pods
1 Black Cardamom Pod
4 Tablespoons Cumin seeds
4 Tablespoons Coriander seeds
2 Tablespoons fennel seeds
Whole Bulb Garlic
4oz Ginger roughly chopped in bite size pieces
Whole dried Chillies to taste
2 Carrots, topped, tailed, skinned
2 Leeks washed and trimmed
Salt to season
Water and/or red wine or beer
Method
Brown the goat in a hot frying pan, those caramelised brown edges will impart a lot of flavour and colour to the dish. Brown in small batches so as not to crowd the pan or diminish the heat too much. Put the browned pieces into a casserole pot. Cover with your chosen cooking liquid, my choice would be 1 bottle of red wine then topped up with water or 1 pint bitter or stout topped up with water. Don't be tempted to use all beer as it can impart a harsh bitter flavour. Add the rest of the ingredients, bring to the boil and then simmer for 2-4 hours depending on the cut and the age of the goat. You can taste a piece after 2 hours and it will give a good indication of how much longer it needs. When cooked remove all the meat pieces using a slotted spoon and leave to rest. Drain the stock through a fine mesh sieve to remove the spices and vegetables. Put the stock back on the stove and bring to a boil. You may now want to reduce it down or thicken as you prefer. You can use a flour roux or onion puree. Don't use a strong vegetable puree as this may drown the sublime meaty flavours. I would probably use a wheat flour roux, melt a big knob of butter in a small saucepan, add 3 tablespoons of flour and cook mixing with a fork. Add a cup of the stock to the roux and blend in well and pour back into the stock, mix well. If lumps form just get your hand blender out and give it a whizz till they are blended in. Now taste and season with salt as needed. Turn off the heat, return the meat to the sauce and then serve. You can serve with a simple rice or really garlicky mash.

Apulia rolls also called braciole or brasciole are the typical Sunday dinner menu or lunch menu in Apuli. Follow our instructions to make this typical Italian dish.

Cut pecorino cheese in thin slices. Clean and wash parsley and basil.
Spread out the horse slices; the slices must not be too thin. If they are thick pound them ligthly.
Season to taste with salt and pepper; arrange some parsley leaves, garlic pieces, fat strips and cheese slices on each. Roll up and tie with kitchen string. You can also use food loop TOP SILICONE by Tescoma.
Put the rolls and olive oil in a pan; let them fry lightly on all sides. Pour in the red wine and let it evaporate partially. At this end add the puréed tomatoes and onion. Keep on cooking on medium heat, half-covered, turning now and then, until the meat is tender and the sauce reaches the right consistence. Add hot water or stock only if necessary. Switch off the gas and add the basil leaves after cutting them with your fingers. Stir.
Remove the strings from the rolls and serve in their sauce.

Note
- We use cherry tomatoes for the sauce because we like them very much as you can see in the photo.
- You can prepare this dish ahead.
- In Apulia (Italy) people use to prepare this dish on Sundays. The rolls are cooked in more puréed tomatoes so it is possible to dress orecchiette with the tomato sauce. The rolls are served as second course.
- If you prefer use lean beef slices.
- Pecorino is an Italian cheese made with ewe's milk.

pray tell.

how on earth do you get from me leaving my torch hung up behind the dash to curry?!

 

[briggie]

ok , i will try to explain .... from leaving a torch in your car .... to leaving things in cars in general , then to smells in cars , including goat poo , resulting in a goat curry recipe

 

[zippy656]

ok, so ther ewas some logic in there
