Ingredients

  • 1kg goat leg meat, boned and all sinew removed
  • 2 tbsp freshly ground cumin seeds
  • 1 tbsp sweet Spanish paprika
  • 1 tsp freshly ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 small handful curly parsley, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 200ml fino sherry
  • 60ml olive oil
  • For the basting liquid:
  • 60ml extra fino sherry
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • half a lemon

Method

Cut the goat into 1cm cubes.

Mix the marinade ingredients and pour over the goat. Refrigerate overnight, turning 2 or 3 times.

Thread the marinated goat onto 30cm metal skewers. Spread the meat out, allowing it to cook evenly.

For the basting liquid: Mix all the ingredients and stick a fork in the curved side of the half lemon to make a fruity basting brush.

To finish: Place the skewers on a charcoal or barbecue grill on a medium heat and cook for 15-20 minutes turning and basting several times each side. Allow to rest before serving.
