Instructions
- If the stem of the artichokes is very long, cut it, just like the tips of the leaves, if they have thorns or are very long, cut the entire tip or only the leaves that you need with scissors.
- Place the artichokes in a large pot, ensuring that each one has its own space and that they are not stacked on top of each other. Add water to the pot, enough to partially cover the artichokes—approximately halfway. Cover the pot and let it cook for 10 minutes. After that, check the artichokes, turn them over, and cook for an additional 10 minutes, or until they are soft and ready to serve.
- When the artichokes are ready, remove them from the water with some kitchen tongs. Squeeze the artichoke a little so that any water they may have comes out. Put them on a board and cut with a serrated knife in half. It is easier if you stop them with the pliers.
- When they are cooked, halved and cored, put the artichokes facing down on a hot grill and with a little vegetable oil. Leave them for 5-10 minutes, it depends a lot on your grill, or until they are hot again and the grill stripes are marked.
- Serve with a vinaigrette and with breadcrumbs.
Notes
Olive oil and parsley bread crumbs
Toast the bread crumbs in a pan with olive oil and a good pinch of salt. When golden, remove from the heat and add chopped parsely.
