Goat colombo
Colombo is a Creole curry built on colombo powder, inherited from the island's Indian community. The goat, marinated and then simmered for a long time, becomes tender and fragrant; it is a Sunday and special-occasion dish.

Instructions
- Cut the goat into pieces, rinse and pat them dry. Mix them in a bowl with the colombo powder, lime juice, crushed garlic, salt and pepper.
- Cover and leave to marinate for at least 2 hours in the fridge, ideally overnight.
- Thinly slice the onions and finely crush the remaining garlic cloves. Heat the oil in a casserole and cook the onions for 5 minutes until translucent.
- Add the drained meat and sear it over high heat for 5 minutes, stirring so it browns on all sides.
- Lower the heat, add the thyme and the pricked whole chili, then pour in the hot water. Cover and simmer gently for 1 h 15 to 1 h 30, until the meat falls off the bone.
- Remove the chili, adjust the seasoning and add the lime zest. Serve piping hot with white rice.
Variations and tips
Chicken colombo. Replace the goat with 1 kg of chicken thighs and reduce the cooking time to 45 minutes.
