I’ve been a little quiet online but only because work has taken over almost every aspect of my life recently. So a short post this week, a photo recipe – fried artichokes, just as I learned to make from my mother-in-law. The recipe is very forgiving if your artichokes are a little older with more of a hairy choke in the centre. That’s seasoned plain flour for dusting (though results were better with less flour) and sunflower oil for frying. We dined on the crispy slices with bread and Spanish ham that night. Delicious!
