Step 1 of 5
Farikaal (Norwegian National Dish)
Cut the lamb into large pieces. Slice the cabbage into large wedges, keeping the core attached to hold them together.
Step 2
Place a layer of lamb pieces in the bottom of a large pot, fatty side down. Sprinkle with peppercorns and salt. Add a layer of cabbage on top. Repeat the layers, ending with cabbage on top.
Step 3
Optional: sprinkle a couple of tablespoons of flour over a lamb layer for a thicker stew.
Step 4
Add the water and bring to the boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and cook for 2 to 3 hours until the lamb falls away from the bone.
Step 5
Serve with boiled potatoes, covering everything generously with the broth.
