[QUOTE="maglil55, post: 2479947, member: 52911"] [USER=372207]@Antje77[/USER] Just spotted this. Cut-off the very tough leaves at the base then remove the stalk so they sit flat in the pot. Pop them into plenty salted, boiling water with a slice of lemon if you have it. Depending on the size and how fresh the artichoke it, it can take anything from 15 to 30 mins to cook. The easy check is, from about 15mins, lift the artichoke out on a spoon and, if a central leaf comes out easily it's ready. Once cooked you have to get into the centre to remove the choke. There's no mistaking it - it's rather "hairy"! Comes out easily with a spoon. I always liked them just with hollandaise. Remember with the outer leaves just to pull them off and use your teeth to "scrape" off the soft bottom bit DO NOT eat the tops as they'll make a heck of a mess of your mouth. [/QUOTE]
