Artichokes With Broad Beans
Ingredients
1 kilo fresh broad beans
6 artichokes
1 ½ cups olive oil
5 fresh spring onions, sliced
1 bunch dill, finely chopped
2 lemons
Salt and pepper
Method
Top and tail the beans. Remove the skin if it is tough. Wash the beans. Clean the artichokes by removing the hard centres from the leaves and the stalk. Chop the tips of the leaves and scrape the inner section to remove the whiskers. Rub them with a lemon so as not to blacken and leave them in water. Fry the onions in the olive oil until they are softened, along with the dill and the lemon. Complete the sauce with 2 cups of water and add the beans and the artichokes. Add salt and leave to bubble on a medium heat for around 1 ½ hours.
