Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1000 grams goat trotters
- 2 medium onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
- 400 milliliters coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder
- 10 leaves curry leaves
- 2 units green chilies, slit lengthwise
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 4 cups water
Instructions
Rinse the goat trotters thoroughly under running water, ensuring they are clean.
In a large pot, heat coconut oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.
Add the ginger-garlic paste to the onions and cook for 2-3 minutes until the raw smell disappears.
Stir in the coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook the spices for another 2 minutes, stirring continuously.
Add the cleaned goat trotters to the pot and mix well, ensuring the trotters are coated with the spice mixture.
Pour in 4 cups of water, bring it to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Let the trotters simmer for about 2 hours until they are tender and the broth is flavorful.
Once the trotters are cooked, add the coconut milk, curry leaves, and green chilies. Continue to cook for another 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Stir in the garam masala and adjust the salt to taste.
Turn off the heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
Serve the Paya Curry hot with a side of cauliflower rice or any Whole30 compliant side dish.
