Crispy Baby Artichokes

Method

Crispy Baby Artichokes

  1. 1

    Prepare the Artichokes

    Trim the stems of the baby artichokes and remove the tough outer leaves. Cut them in half lengthwise and soak in water with lemon juice to prevent browning.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, and water until smooth.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  4. 4

    Fry the Artichokes

    Dip each artichoke half in the batter, allowing excess to drip off, and carefully place in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the crispy artichokes hot with the romesco sauce on the side for dipping.
