Ingredients
Artichokes
Garlic vinegarette
Method
1.To prepare the artichokes, trim away the stalks and remove the tough outer leaves. Remove and discard the top third of the artichoke. Place artichoke into a bowl of cold water with the juice of 1 lemon while you prepare the remaining artichokes.
2.Bring a pot of salted water to the boil, add the juice of 1 lemon and the prepared artichokes, and cook for 25 minutes or until tender, but not soft. Remove arlichokes from the pot and allow excess water to drain away.
3.To make the vinegarette: Place garlic, mustard, sugar, vinegar and parsley into a bowl and whisk to combine. Slowly whisk in the olive oil and season to taste with sea salt and pepper.
4.To serve, divide the artichokes between four serving plates, drizzle each one generously with the garlic vinaigrette and season with sea salt.
Note: A piece of greaseproof paper and an upturned plate on top of the pot will ensure the artichokes stay submerged and cook evenly.
