Curry goat is a dish that is made during special occasions in India, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Nepal.[1][2] Goat is a popular meat of choice for Hindus because they do not eat beef and for Muslims because they do not eat pork, so it is a good medium. It is also a popular party dish in Jamaica, and at a "big dance" a local expert or "specialist" is often brought in to cook it.[3] It is flavoured with a spice mix that is typical of Indo-Jamaican cooking and Scotch Bonnet Peppers;[4] it is almost always served with rice, dal bhat, or roti and, in restaurants in North America and Europe, other typically Caribbean side dishes such as fried plantain may be served as an accompaniment. There are many variations on the dish that include using mutton when goat is not available or bulking it out with potatoes.

It is popular during Eid al-Adha, which is when a goat is sacrificed by Muslim Indo-Caribbeans.[5]

In Britain, the carnivals in St Pauls, Bristol and Notting Hill, London and other Caribbean cultural events will usually have curry goat available as well as other regional foods.[6][7]
