Recipe Notes

DIRECT METHOD:
If you want to make the process easier, add oil directly to the pressure cooker, follow steps, 2-4 and then add the uncooked meat and water, cover the cooker and let it cook till meat is tender about 3-5 whistles. Be careful to turn the heat to low after 1 whistle or the curry can burn.

SLOW COOKER METHOD:
Follow steps from 2-5, add the uncooked meat and water, mix well and transfer into a slow cooker. Cook it till the meat becomes tender. Garnish with cilantro leaves.

If you have a busy schedule, you can sauté onions and the spices, steps 2-5, freeze it in 1 curry portion sizes, then, in the morning, mix the spices and goat in a slow cooker and leave it on low heat setting. You will have an amazing curry for dinner by the time you are back.
