Goat Roti oh yeah Baby!
I opened this post expecting to read about possible pairings for the
wonderful West Indian dish. Sort of a curry pie or patty in Grenada, or
curried meats in a crepe or a wrap in other WI's.
Hmm, I was underwhelmed by goat roti. On the other hand the conch roti we
had in the Grenadines was truly memorable (the proof is that I remember it)
as was the chicken Roti I had in St Lucia, though that was more memorable
for the proportion of bone to meat. However, in fairness I must say that
goat roti was better than the goat curry we tried in Saba, and much better
than the goat colombo we had in St Martin. I've come to the conclusion that
goats are not my favourite domestic animal. The milk tastes of goat, the
meat tastes of goat and the whole area where they live stinks. They escape
and eat my vegetables and I don't even like goat cheese. (Though the one we
had in Turin made in the UK was an honourable exception - not enough to
justify goats, but at least it eas edible).
Does make me wonder how a goat roti would go with ... a goat roti.
Beeeeeeh.
