Posted by : Brian Mailman Artichokes, Fried (Carciofi alla Guida Variation) - pareve
Adaptation to Carciofi alla Guida, by Brian Mailman: My brother showed me a couple years ago a delectable and unusual way to cook artichokes. It's similar to Carciofi alla Giudia, but different enough I thought I'd post it Slice them in half, lengthwise. Remove choke. Slice a few cloves of garlic. Pour about 1/4" olive oil in heavy pot and put in sliced garlic. Turn the heat on low, as low as you can get it. OK, maybe not that low. Put in the artichokes and cover pot. Cook for about an hour, and serve with either clarified lemon-butter or mayonnaise. Brush the oil, bruschetta-style, on slices of sourdough French bread and top with pot-roasted sliced garlics. Artilicious!
