How To Make Sup Kambing Medan Recipe (Goat Soup)

How To Make Sup Kambing Medan Recipe (Goat Soup)-Sup Kambing Medan or literally translated as Medan Goat Soup was the second North Sumatran food that I made on February after Ayam Pinadar Andaliman Pepper Chicken.
Some may ask what the differences between goat, mutton and lamb are. You can always go back to my old postwhere I discussed about them. Goat is another red meat source that is popular to be used in Indonesia especially during Islamic celebration, Eid ul Adha where the Muslims slaughter goat. I myself prefer the taste of goat and lamb
Sup Kambing Medan is likely having an influence from Malay (Melayu) ethnic group where the use of spices are quite notable. Melayu is an ethnic group that is resided in Indonesia especially Sumatra and Kalimantan, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and the Philipppines.
This goat soup is perfect to warm up our body for cold winter days in Winnipeg. But I wish the weather is getting better this week as I did go out with my spring jacket today.
I have adapted this recipe by using one of my favourite toys, Vita Clay Gourmet Rice Cooker and Slow Cooker. With this tool, I can make rice (white, red, brown, sweet glutinous rice), rice porridge, soup, savoury stew, pot roast and Greek yogurt. Also, I adapted the way Koreans treat their beef short-ribs before making Galbitang (Korean beef ribs soup) by soaking the meat in cold water.
