Jamaican Curried Goat - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 pounds goat stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 fresh hot chile peppers, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons curry powder
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped
1 rib celery, chopped
2 1/2 cups vegetable broth
1 bay leaf
3 potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks, or more as desired

Preparation

Combine goat meat, chile pepper, curry powder, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate to allow flavors to blend, 1 hour to overnight.
Remove goat meat mixture from bowl and pat dry, reserving marinade. Heat vegetable oil in a stockpot over medium-high heat. Cook meat in batches, browning on all sides, 5 to 6 minutes per batch. Transfer meat to a plate. Add onion and celery to the stockpot; cook and stir until onion begins to brown, 4 to 6 minutes.
Stir browned goat meat into onion mixture. Add reserved marinade, vegetable broth, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour. Stir in potatoes; simmer until potatoes and meat are tender, 35 to 45 minutes more.
Remove stockpot from heat, skim off surface fat, and remove bay leaf.
