About

This treat was an excuse for a silly game that we played as young girls, picking on the artichoke leaves, like petals from a daisy.

Ingredients

4 whole artichokes, washed and steamed or boiled

Method

Once the artichokes are cooked to taste, remove them from the pan and turn them stem upwards to drain and cool, then put them on a serving plate. Prepare the sauce and serve in a separate bowl or in four individual bowls.
