Calderetang Kambing

I wanna share my family's tradition in cooking goat caldereta or calderetang kambing. I encountered a lot of our guests every time we have family gatherings, telling us that they do not eat goat meat because they do not like the smell, but once they have tasted our calderetang kambing, they're always amazed why it doesn't smell goat at all. It is because of our way in cooking it, grilling it first to remove the strong smell juices from the meat. I hope that you will try this style of caldereta, you won't regret. :-)

1 kilo goat's meat ( grilled until light brown)
1 big onion ( minced)
