Fårikål is a traditional Norwegian dish made primarily from mutton and cabbage. The name translates to "sheep in cabbage," reflecting its main ingredients. The dish is typically prepared by layering pieces of mutton with cabbage in a pot, adding water, and seasoning with whole black pepper. It is then simmered for several hours until the meat is tender. Fårikål is often enjoyed during the autumn months, particularly in September, when it is celebrated with a national day known as Fårikålens dag. This dish is cherished for its simplicity and hearty flavor, making it a staple in Norwegian cuisine.
