Seductive Indian Goat Masala
Unleash your culinary desires with this tantalizing Indian Goat Masala, a dish that's as bold and adventurous in flavor as it is in spirit. Perfectly prepared in the Instant Pot®, it teases your palate with succulent baby goat meat, or lamb if you prefer to play it a bit safer, infused with an exotic blend of spices that promise a sensory overload.
Wash the goat meat well under cold running water and pat dry. Massage in salt and 1 teaspoon turmeric powder with tender care. Set aside for 10 minutes to marinate in anticipation.
Set your Instant Pot® to seduce with its Saute function. Heat oil and whisper in the sugar, letting it caramelize to a golden allure.
Tease the potatoes in the caramelized sugar until golden, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside, keeping them warm and wanting.
Introduce cardamom pods, cloves, and cinnamon stick into the pot. Add the sliced onion, chile peppers, garlic, and ginger. Cook until the onions are soft and golden, about 5 minutes of tender mingling.
Stir in tomatoes, remaining turmeric, and chili powder. Let them mingle and melt together, stirring often, for about 5 minutes.
Add the marinated goat meat, stirring to blend everything in a passionate mix. Pour in enough water to cover the meat in a tender embrace, about 2 cups.
Seal the Instant Pot®. Cook under high pressure for 15 minutes, letting the flavors meld in a steamy affair.
Release pressure naturally for 15 minutes, then let out the remaining steam swiftly.
Reunite the curry with the potatoes, adding about 1/4 cup more water. Pressure cook for another 5 minutes of togetherness.
Release pressure, unlock, and open the lid. Adjust the seasoning to perfect this culinary encounter.
Serve, garnished with fresh cilantro, as a sultry finale to this exotic escapade.
