Artichoke Preparation

Breading Mixture

Dipping Sauce

Method

Artichoke Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Artichokes

    Start by trimming the stems off the fresh artichokes and removing the tough outer leaves until you reach the tender ones. Cut the top 1 inch off each artichoke and rub the cut edges with lemon juice to prevent browning.

  2. 2

    Boil the Artichokes

    In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the prepared artichokes and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a knife. Drain and let cool slightly.

Breading Mixture

  1. 3

    Prepare the Breading

    In a shallow bowl, mix together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of cornmeal, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together 2 eggs and 1 cup of milk until well combined.

Frying

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat 4 cups of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 5

    Fry the Artichokes

    Dip each cooked artichoke into the egg and milk mixture, then dredge in the flour-cornmeal mixture until fully coated. Carefully place the coated artichokes into the hot oil, frying a few at a time for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Dipping Sauce

  1. 6

    Make the Dipping Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons of hot sauce, and minced garlic. Mix well until smooth and set aside.
