..It`s a goat.

I asked my Indian restuarant supplier friend to let me know when he could get hold of one, thankfully he has done the hard work for me!

I`ve never eaten or cooked goat meat before this is going to be interesting.
I must admit due to slight language communication difficulties, I was slightly worried I might have one running around the garden!

"Get the goat out of the freezer..."
Nahhh! It's not the same

Although it is an opportunity for a goat related sig

Blimey and all I ate tonight was home made cottage pie made with organic lamb and potatoes! (Plus it was also very easy to turn the leftovers into baby food for our 8 month old!)

So come on, what does goat taste like.......?

Hmmmm...
"Get the sheep ,out, out for the slaughter" works.

"Pull the carrots screaming from the ground", also.

"Food" the concept album! lol


"oooh oooh mushrooms on the side".

The possibilties are endless.

Add lyrics as chosen. Fun !

..It`s not a surprising flavour at all, to the extent of which I think a lot of us have eaten it before, under the guise of "meat madras" and the like.
This of course gives the chef the ability to use whatever meat is available by his supplier.
It was instantly familiar.
One of my food heroes ,Pat Chapman, mentions often in his book "use lamb ,mutton or goat", so you get the picture.

Basically, some parts of it are like lamb, some are tougher like mutton but all of the cuts I have out- class cheap lamb, they are also much redder.
It`s a meat that`s probably too expensive to appear in the big supermarkets, goats seem to be largely bred for cheese and milk both of which are marginal markets.

Thanks for your detailed reply! Will certainly check it out!

There`s a pidgeon in there now!

I first tried this the other week, and am looking forward to recreating the dish.(Pidgeon breasts wrapped in bacon)
What a strange texture it is, Mrs Mart thought I had bought some calves liver.

Flying red meat was not something I thought existed.
