Ingredients
- 2 x globe artichokes - (abt 8 to 12 ounce ea) Melted butter and lemon wedges if serving them warm Vinaigrette or possibly salad dressing if serving them chil
Directions
- Cut off stem and with a sharp knife trim the base so artichokes sit flat. Make a cut across the top of the leaves, parallel to the base. With scissors, trim the leaves so they have straight edges.
- To cook conventionally, bring a large shallow pan of salted water to a boil. Submerge artichokes, cover tops with a heat-proof heavy plate to keep them submerged and cook for 35 to 45 min or possibly till a leaf in middle can be pulled out easily. Drain them upside down so water runs out.
- To cook in microwave, wrap each one individually in microwavable plastic wrap and set them in a round plate. Microwave for 10 min or possibly till a center leaf can be pulled out easily. Remove plastic wrap (carefully; it will be warm).
- Serve as is, with each person pulling out a leaf and dipping it in melted butter, or possibly remove cone of inner leaves in one fell swoop and reserve them for later. With a small spoon scoop out choke. Replace cone of leaves, upside down and serve with melted butter seasoned with lemon or possibly vinaigrette.
- This recipe yields 2 servings.
