Ingredients

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Salt, to taste
1 tablespoon plus 3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 artichokes, halved and trimmed of coarse (but not inner) leaves, choke removed, held in acidulated water
1/2 cup dry white wine
3/4 cup boiling water

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the parsley, mint, garlic, salt and 1 tablespoon olive oil. In the cavity of the artichoke from which the choke was removed, place 1 teaspoon of the herb mixture. Repeat this procedure with the remaining chokes. Arrange all chokes in a deep pan that keeps them close together, in other words, one that doesn?t give them room to fall over. Add the wine, boiling water, remaining oil and a pinch of salt. Cover and simmer on the stovetop 1 hour. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Everyone loved it!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This dish is incredibly easy to make. I made it a day ahead and took it to a party after work the following day. The oil... and liquid that remain in the serving dish after the artichokes are gone is great for dipping bread. I chose to use small artichokes (12) since they have no choke to remove. I just tore off the outer leaves and used a vegetable peeler for the stem. I cut them in half for cooking, then in quarters once they were cooled.Read more

Simply fine appetizer/side dish
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Made this for a birthday dinner gathering and got unsolicated rave reviews. What I liked about it too was not only the fact... that it was not a fussy recipe, but that it was a make-ahead dish, keeping down multi-tasking when a meal is coming together at the end. It doesn't compete for stovetop and oven when you need it the most! I offered to make these for a dinner gathering I am attending as a guest next weekend. Because I can make it ahead and it's served room temp, it's a win-win recipe for everyone involved. I would suggest increasing the herb/olive oil mixture as it was 'just' enough to fill the cavities of artichokes lightly...it couldn't hurt. Heat the pan drippings when ready to eat. Pour over and serve.Read more

I have steamed Artichokes befor and served with dressing/dip, but this was a major hit and is something I have added to my... list of 'fun and useful' rec. for future use, esp. parties.Read more
