Artichokes from Oxley Downs

Grilled Artichokes

Cut the tops off the artichokes about 1/2 way down.

These pictures should do most of the explaining.

Peel off the hard outer leaves till the inner core is reached (see below).

Rub with lemon and then soak in a bowl with lemon juice added.

Simmer in garlic and chicken or vegetable stock that comes up their sides halfway.

The artichokes should be ready once the stock is completely evapourated. Serve as a side with grains and other vegetables and BBQ meats.
