Goat meat is one of the popular traditional meats in our Zimbabwean cuisine. You prepare it in pretty much the same way that you would beef. However, I usually prefer boiling it with some garlic, lemon and a bit of vinegar for flavour as well as to prevent the not so pleasant “fragrance” that goat meat sometimes produces when it’s being boiled 😀 !!
Resources/Equipment You Will Need
- Good sized pot
- Wooden spoon
- Chopping board
- Sharp knife
Quick Instructions
- Cut and wash your goat meat (500g). Add enough water to just cover it. Add garlic (3 cloves), lemon (3 rings), dried thyme (2 tsp), salt (1/2 tsp) and white wine vinegar (2 tbsp).
- Bring to the boil then reduce heat to medium high and allow it cook until tender.
- When meat is tender, discard the lemon. Add pure vegetable oil (2 tbsp). Fry until meat begins to brown.
- Add onions (1/2 small, chopped) and sweat them for about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes (3 large, chopped) and cook for about 3 minutes.
- Reduce heat further to a gentle simmer and let it simmer for about 3-5 minutes. Your meat is ready.
