👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Clean the artichokes: cut off the tough outer leaves, trim the tips, halve and remove the fuzzy choke, and put them straight into water with some of the lemon juice, so they don't darken.

  2. 2
    Heat the olive oil in a wide pot over medium heat.
    ⚙ Pan-fryingStoveWide, shallow pot
  3. 3
    Add the garlic and fry 1 minute.
    ⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStove
    💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.
  4. 4
    Add the artichokes and the rest of the lemon juice and the water, cover and cook over low heat 35–40 minutes, until they can be pierced easily.
    StoveLid
    💡A tight lid and low heat: the vegetable cooks in the steam of the little liquid and softens evenly, without burning or falling apart.
  5. 5
    Season the artichokes with salt and black pepper.
  6. 6
    Sprinkle the parsley on top and serve hot.
