Ingredients
3 ½ pounds baby goat meat, cut into small cubes
salt to taste
3 teaspoons ground turmeric, divided
5 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon white sugar
3 medium potatoes, halved
3 pods cardamom
4 whole cloves
1 (1 inch) piece cinnamon stick
3 medium onions, thinly sliced
2 green chile peppers, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 (1 inch) piece minced fresh ginger root
2 medium tomatoes, sliced
¾ teaspoon chili powder
2 ¼ cups water, divided, or as needed
freshly chopped cilantro
Directions
Wash goat meat well under cold running water and pat dry. Rub in salt and 1 teaspoon turmeric powder. Set aside for 10 minutes.
Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Heat oil and add sugar, allowing it to caramelize. Saute potatoes in the caramelized sugar until golden, about 5 minutes. Remove potatoes and set aside.
Stir in cardamom pods, cloves, and cinnamon stick. Add sliced onion, chile peppers, garlic, and ginger. Cook until onions are soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, remaining 2 teaspoons turmeric powder, and chili powder; cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes. Add goat meat, stirring to blend everything. Add enough water to cover the meat, about 2 cups.
Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer’s instructions; set timer for 15 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer’s instructions, about 15 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Taste curry and adjust seasoning with salt and sugar to taste if necessary.
Check the goat to make sure it is tender. Add the potatoes and about 1/4 cup more water. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer’s instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 minutes for pressure to build.
Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer’s instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Adjust seasoning once more. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh cilantro.
Recipe Tip
If you don’t have a pressure cooker, adjust the cooking time and simmer on low heat until meat is tender, 2 to 3 hours. Add potatoes for the last hour.
