Wash goat mean with vinegar and water. Rub in all the seasoning with the goat meat and leave for minimum of 1 hour (preferably overnight) in the fridge. Remove the meat from fridge and then remove the seasoning from the goat meat. In a saucepan, heat the oil on high until it smells, add 30g of curry powder to the hot oil. Stir curry powder in the oil until the colour starts to change Put the goat meat in the saucepan now. Stir the meat in the hot oil for two minutes; be careful not to burn the meat. Add 30ml water to the pot, keep stirring until the meat looks like the muscles are tightening up. Now turn down the heat to medium and add 500ml of water to the meat in the saucepan. Cover the pot and let this stew/simmer for 20 minutes. Check on the meat in the pot, stir again and add water to cover the meat. Simmer for another 20 minutes, and then check to see if the meat is medium soft. If so, add the seasoning you removed earlier to the pot. Let the stew simmer for another 15 minutes or so on a slightly lower heat (between medium and low). You can add potatoes to the pot at the same time you add the seasoning (not too many!) Make sure that most of the water is evaporated; the gravy shouldn’t be too watery.
