I made this delicious curry from goat and potatoes for iftar and it turned out amazing! You must try this recipe! Tender meat and potatoes to melt in your mouth.. what can be better than that! It is best served with a nice rice pulao, steamed rice or roti with lots of homemade raita and chutney! Enjoy

Ingredients
  • One kilo goat (you can also use beef)
  • 6 medium potatoes, cut in chunks
  • 1/4 cup of oil
  • 3 onions, pureed
  • 2 tomatoes, pureed
  • A head of garlic, pureed or finely diced
  • A tablespoon of ginger, pureed or finely diced
  • 3 green chillies (more or less depending on how spicy you like)
  • A stick of cinnamon
  • 1 large cardamom (bari elachi)
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon red chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon chili flakes
  • 1 tablespoon turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon garam masala
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin seeds (zeera)
  • One bunch of cilantro (dhania) chopped for garnishing


Directions

1. Add oil to pot and heat it up.
2. Add onions and fry until golden brown.
3. Add garlic and ginger. Fry for a few minutes but do not burn.
4. Add tomato puree and green chillies and cook for a few more minutes.
5. Add powdered spiced as well as cinnamon and cardamom. Cook for 5 more minutes.
6. Add the meat and mix well. Cook on high heat for 10 minutes. Stir after every few minutes so meat doesn't burn.
7. To get the meat tender cook for 25-50 more minutes on low heat depending on how tender your meat gets. Add water if meat gets dry when necessary to prevent from burning. Cover the meat and let it cook. Check on it and stir periodically.
8. After the meat has become tender, add the potatoes. Add 2 glasses of water or more depending on how much sauce you want in the curry.
9. Cover and let the potatoes cook for about 10-20 more minutes until the potatoes are soft.
10. Add the cilantro.

Your aloo gosht is now ready! Serve with hot roti or rice and yogurt raita, chutney and salad. Yummmm.. enjoy :)
