Ingredients
6 artichokes
4 lemons cut in half
½ cup finely chopped onions or scallions
½ cup extra virgin oil, preferably Greek
10 to 12 small white onions, peeled
4 carrots, scraped and quartered lengthwise
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
⅓ bunch dill chopped (or approximately 1 teaspoon dried dill)
Preparation
- Step 1
Peel and discard the tough outer layers of artichokes. Cut off top half and discard. Cut off all but ½ inch of stem. With a teaspoon, remove the spiny choke. Rub the artichokes all over with a lemon half or two.
- Step 2
Add the juice of one lemon to a bowl with enough cool water to cover all the artichokes. As the artichokes are prepared, add them to the bowl.
- Step 3
In a heavy saucepan, brown the chopped onions or scallions in olive oil over medium-low heat until tender. Add whole onions, carrots and water to cover vegetables. Add juice of two lemons, salt and pepper to taste. Bring liquid to a boil. Add artichokes and dill. Cover, lower heat and simmer about 25 minutes.
- Step 4
Remove pan from heat and let artichokes stand until they reach room temperature, about 40 minutes. To serve, arrange artichokes, carrots and onions on a dish and spoon cooking liquid over all.
