Braised Artichokes And Vegetables
- Replies 3
I'm adding this recipe for Artichokes
I hear from alot of people they have never tried them as they have no idea how to cook them.
My family loves them but I will be honest they are not my favourite vegetable.
My recipe my picture
Ingredients:
4 x whole fresh Artichokes
1 x onion halved then thinly sliced
1 x garlic clove or 1 x teaspoon of jar garlic
1 small bunch of dill
4 x cups of vegetable stock Or 4 cups water with 4 vegetable stock cube
2 x carrots sliced or cut into chunks
1 x large potato cut into small pieces
2 lemons
1 teaspoon each of pepper n salt
2 tablespoons of oil ( I use olive oil but any oil is good )
2 x plain flour mixed with 1/4 cup of water
Note ; you can add other vegies eg zucchini celery ect
Method:
1. Cut the stem of the artichoke, cut the top off the Artichokes slightly. Pull the first layer of leaves off and discard
2. In a frypan gently fry onion till soft not brown. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes
3. Add vegetables and stir through and cook for 5 minutes on medium heat
4. Transfer to a large pot or slow cooker ( see note below)
5. Great the rind of the lemons then juice them , add both juice and rind to pot.
6. Add stock, Artichokes and chopped drill to pot and salt n pepper and flour mixture
7. Bring to the boil the reduce heat to low to medium and cook with lid on for 1 1/2 hours , (see note below )
8. Serve by itself hot with crusty bread.
Notes: If I have time I will cook this in the morning in a slow cooker on high for around 6 hours.
The picture is before I added it to the slow cooker
If you don't have a slow cooker I would buy one it's great for cheaper cuts of meat and just tenderise food beautifully
