Potluck #51: Holidays and Cooking and Recipes - Oh My!

Farikal- A Norwegian Mutton and Cabbage Recipe

This is a recipe from Allrecipes.com for 4 servings

INGREDIENTS
8 ounces sliced lamb meat
1 head cabbage, cored and sliced
2 cups water
1 1/2 tablespoons whole black peppercorns
salt to taste

DIRECTIONS
Arrange a layer of sliced lamb in the bottom of a Dutch oven or soup pot. Top with a layer of cabbage. Repeat layering as many times as you can. Tie the peppercorns into a small piece of cheesecloth, and place them in the center of the casserole. Pour the water over all, and cover with a lid.
Bring to a boil, then simmer over low heat for 2 hours. Remove the package of peppercorns before serving.

I decided to up it to 6 servings. Using That's My Home Recipe Converter I found out I needed to multiply the recipe by 1.5.


Recipe Adjustment Factor is 1.5 Times Original Amounts (Original Amounts in parentheses.)
