👨‍🍳 조리법

1
In a large bowl, combine the goat meat with vegetable oil, garlic paste, all-purpose seasoning, beef soup base, chicken bouillon, lemon juice, chopped parsley, and cilantro. Add chopped Scotch bonnet pepper if using. Season with salt and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure the meat is well-coated.
💡 전문가 팁: Marinating the goat meat for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight) will enhance the flavor and tenderness.
2
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange the seasoned goat meat in an even layer in a large roasting pan or on a baking sheet.
💡 전문가 팁: If grilling, thread the meat onto skewers, shaking off excess marinade.
3
Roast the goat meat for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and scatter the thinly sliced onions evenly over the top of the meat.
4
Return the pan to the oven and continue roasting for another 45-60 minutes, or until the goat meat is tender and cooked through, and the onions are softened and slightly caramelized.
5
If grilling, grill the skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes, until nicely charred and cooked through. Brush with a little oil during the last few minutes.
6
Let the roasted meat rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve hot, with the softened onions. Ntaba is often enjoyed with fufu, rice, or plantains.
💡 전문가 팁: The resting period allows the juices to redistribute, making the meat more tender and flavorful.
