Emily’s curry goat
Jamaican Curry Goat
“Jamaican Curry Goat is one of my absolute favorite dishes. It is a must have at any major celebration or family gathering. Curry goat is cooked across the Caribbean and varies country to country depending on the spices in their curry blend. Regardless, the dish is a staple in the region and represents the perfect blend of West African and South Asian cultures.”
Aastha’s Thoughts
Emily has told me a great deal about Jamaican food since I first met her. While I am vegetarian and have not tried this dish, the way she describes it sounds like the perfect reminder of family and home. I love that curry incorporates two different cultures and blends them together, and that it is able to symbolize a celebratory occasion or event. I hope to try more Jamaican cuisine with her this fall when I get back to school in NYC!
