Fårikål is a traditional Norwegian dish, consisting of pieces
of mutton with bone, cabbage, whole black pepper and a little wheat flour,
cooked for several hours in a casserole, traditionally served with potatoes
boiled in their jackets. The dish is typically prepared in early autumn.
Fårikål is originally a dish from the Western part of Norway,
but is now enjoyed in all parts of the country.
In the 1970s, fårikål was elected national dish of Norway by a popular radio
programme.
