Artichoke with Olive Oil Recipe
Today I have a super light and healthy recipe for you. I also have a couple of tips concerning this recipe that I wanted to share with you. Keeping the artichoke hearts whole is definitely more presentation-friendly as you can see from the pictures. However if you don't care about the appearance, then cutting the artichoke into small cubes will both reduce the cooking time and allow the artichoke flavor to merge with all the other ingredients.
Squeezing lemon juice into the water will prevent the artichoke from turning brown. It is important not to let the artichoke get exposed to air for too long. Although, this will not affect the taste, browned artichoke is not going to be as appetizing in my opinion.
