This is how I make it, it's the Jamaican version. I never measure the spices so all portions given are just approximate.
GOAT CURRY
3 lb. Goat Meat (cut up in bite size pieces)
1 Large Onion (chopped)
2 cloves Garlic (chopped)
1 Scotch Bonnet Pepper (chopped and seeded)
4 oz. Curry Powder
1 oz. Oil
1 oz. Ground Black Pepper
2 tbsp. Salt
4 sprig. Thyme
1/2 oz. Vinegar
1 oz. Allspice
Few cloves, mustard seeds and cardamom crushed together in a mortar.
Wash goat meat with vinegar and water. Rub in all the seasoning except cloves/mustard seeds/cardamom with goat meat and let it sit in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Remove the meat from the refrigerator and then remove the seasoning from the goat meat.
In a saucepan, heat the oil on high until it smells. Add the cloves/mustard seeds/cardamom and 1 oz. curry powder to the hot oil. Stir in oil until the color starts to change.
Put the goat meat in the saucepan. Stir the meat in the hot oil for two minutes; be careful not to burn the meat.
Add 1 oz. water to the pot, keep stirring until the meat looks like the muscles are tightening up.
Turn down the heat to medium and add 1 cup of water to the meat in the saucepan. Cover the pot and let this stew simmer for 20 minutes. Check on the meat in the pot, stir again and add more water if needed.
Simmer for another 20 minutes, and then check to see if the meat is medium soft.
If it is so, add the seasoning you removed earlier to the pot. Let the stew simmer for another 15 minutes on a slightly lower heat (between medium and low).
Although this is a stew, it should not be dominated by watery type gravy. You should make this stew cook until most of the water is evaporated.
