Instructions
- Clean the paunch and offal thoroughly in cold water and vinegar, then cut the meat and offal into 3 to 4 cm pieces.
- Sauté the chopped onion, garlic, pepper and tomatoes in the oil for 5 minutes, then add the meat and offal and brown for 10 minutes.
- Season with salt, pepper, cumin and chilies, cover with water and simmer for 1 hour over low heat.
- Mix the mashed potatoes with the cassava flour and a spoonful of oil to make a smooth stuffing.
- Fill the goat paunch with the meat mixture and the stuffing, then close it securely with kitchen string.
- Lower the paunch into simmering water, cover and cook for 1 hour 30 minutes over low heat, making sure the water doesn't boil too hard. Slice and serve with coriander and farofa.
