👨🍳 步骤
- 1
Season the goat and lamb meat generously with paprika, crushed garlic, 1 tablespoon of salt, and ½ teaspoon of black pepper. For best flavor, marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
- 2
Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Sear the seasoned meat in batches until browned on all sides. Remove the meat and set aside.
- 3
Add the sliced onions to the pot and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add the remaining crushed garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 4
Return the seared meat to the pot. Add the bay leaves, water, and the remaining 1 teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the meat is tender.
- 5
Add the prepared mandioca, inhamé, sweet potatoes, regular potatoes, squash, and green bananas to the pot. Ensure the vegetables are mostly submerged; add more water if necessary. Cover and continue to simmer for another 30-40 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

Taste the stew and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Remove the bay leaves before serving. Serve hot, with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice if desired.
