Postup
Krok za krokom
- 1
Place the goat meat in a large stockpot and cover with the water.
Približne 2 min
Poznámka kuchára: For a cleaner broth, you can rinse the goat meat under cold water before adding it to the pot.
- 2
Add the onion, garlic, scallions, whole scotch bonnet pepper, thyme sprigs, and pimento berries to the pot.
Približne 3 min
Poznámka kuchára: Leaving the scotch bonnet whole imparts flavor without overwhelming heat. Be careful not to break it open.
- 3
Bring the pot to a rolling boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer.
Približne 15 min
Poznámka kuchára: Skim off any foam or scum that rises to the surface during the initial boil for a clearer soup.
- 4
Cover the pot and let the soup simmer for at least 2 hours, or until the goat meat is very tender and falling off the bone.
Približne 2 h
Poznámka kuchára: Check the water level occasionally and top up with hot water if it reduces too much.
- 5
While the meat simmers, prepare the vegetables by peeling and chopping the green bananas, carrots, potatoes, and chayote.
Poznámka kuchára: Keep the chopped potatoes and bananas in a bowl of cold water to prevent them from browning before you add them to the soup.
- 6
Add all the prepared vegetables to the pot with the tender goat meat.

Približne 5 min
Poznámka kuchára: Keep the spinners small as they will swell up when cooked.

Drop the spinners into the simmering soup one by one, along with the vegetables.
