Cuisine of Montserrat

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Montserrat's national dish is goat water, a (not too thick or thin) goat meat stew (made from the meat of the male (ram) goat) and served with crispy bread rolls. It bears resemblance to the Irish stew and can be served with a variety of foods, such as bread, and rice.

The Montserrat cuisine resembles to the general British and Caribbean one, as it is situated in the Caribbean zone and it is a British territory. The cuisine includes a wide range of light meats, like fish, seafood and Chicken, which are mostly grilled, fried or roasted. Being a fusion of numerous cultures, like Spanish, French, African, Indian and Amerindian, the Caribbean cuisine is unique, yet complex.
