Fårikål? What exactly was Fårikål?

Hadleigh blinked several times at Art when he told them this is what they would be preparing today. It was no potion she had ever heard of before that was sure. Probably because it wasn't a potion at all but a stew.

They were going to be making food. Well erm alrighty-o then. That was sort of like making potions being as directions needed to be followed in order to prepare the meal properly. Something like this should've been expected really since it was a joint lesson with muggle studies.

Listening quietly to what all had to be done Hady accepted the recipe card before rising to her feet and heading over to where the crates were. She gathered herself everything she would need for the meal having to make two trips just so she wouldn't end up dropping anything. Once back at her own little 'work station' she laid everything out around her making sure she did in deed have what was needed. When it was all in order she pulled out her wand and cast a very well placed 'scourify' on everything she would be using and then on her hands as well. Things had to be clean.

First she laid out her meat potion on the clean cutting board. Taking her knife she carefully began to slice the lamb into roughly 3cm slices until she had as close to the 2.5kg that was required. What remained went right back into the bag. Putting the sliced lamb onto a clean plate she then re-cleaned both the cutting board and knife. Now it was time to cut the cabbage. This took a few moments as it needed to be sliced down the middle in half but at the same time she had to make sure the core remained intact while doing so. Then each half was cut in half again and then those halves were then sliced into wedges of three of four. It wasn't to difficult once she got going.

Next came the water. Hady took the water bottle from the crate and measured out 500ml into the measuring cup. Into her cauldron it went. Now to layer her ingredients for the Fårikål. A layer of lamb was laid over the water and then a layer of cabbage followed by a sprinkle of both salt and pepper. These steps were repeated a few times until the top layer was cabbage. She then placed the cauldron lid on top of it. Perfect.

Hady then once more used 'scourgify' on her hands and all her supplies before putting away everything she wouldn't be needing for the next part. This was mainly to get it out of the way and to cause less confusion. Once she had that finished she carefully went about setting up her tripod over the flames of the fire she had build earlier. It only took a couple of moments to get it set up right and to make sure it wasn't wobbly or loop-sided at all. Lastly the full cauldron was set on top of the tripod of the flames of the fire she had built before she set her small timer for one hour exactly.

And now that her Fårikål was all prepared and cooking it was time to move on to the Damper.
