The
heart of the artichoke is the best part, and has a sweet, juicy and meaty
flavour. This recipe is simple and enhances the flavour of the artichoke.
8 artichokes
4 tablespoons parsley
1 tablespoon mint
2 cloves garlic
1 lemon
100 ml olive oil
Salt and pepper to season
Method
Trim the artichoke stalks to 5 cm long and remove the tough
outer leaves. Boil until soft for
approximately 30 minutes, until a skewer easily goes through them. Immerse the artichokes in a bowl of cold
water and lemon juice (to retain their colour).
Place in a saucepan with stalks pointing upwards. Pour the rest of the mixture around the artichokes
and add a little water and lemon juice so the stalks are just covered.
Heat the artichokes by simmering gently until the water has
evaporated.
