Ingredients
- 180 g Goat meat, raw
- 150 g Wine, red
- 10 g Garlic, raw
- 40 g Onions, raw
- 0.5 g Bay leaves
- 10 g Lard
- 1 g Salt

Method
- Cut the goat meat into large chunks and season with the salt and pepper.
- Melt the lard in a heavy pot and brown the meat well on all sides over medium-high heat, about 8 minutes.
- Add the sliced onion and garlic and cook 3-4 minutes, then pour in the red wine and add the bay leaf; the meat should be at least half covered by wine.
- Bring to a bare simmer, cover, and cook very slowly, over low heat or in a low oven at 150 °C (300 °F), for 2.5-3 hours, until the meat is completely tender and pulls apart easily.
- Check occasionally and top up with a little water if the liquid runs low.
- Remove the bay leaf and serve the meat with its rich wine sauce, traditionally with boiled potatoes or bread.
