Ingredients
- 4 globe artichokes
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 4 heads garlic, finely chopped
- 4 tbsp finely chopped parsley
- 4 green or black olives, chopped
- 4 anchovy fillets, rinsed, chopped
- 1 can tuna
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Soak the artichokes in a bowl of water mixed with the lemon juice.
Turn the artichokes upside-down. Bounce them against a table. This will make it easier to fill.
In a bowl, combine the garlic, parsley, olives, anchovy and tuna.
Divide the mixture into 4 portions. Fill in between the artichoke leaves and in the centre. Place stuffed artichokes in pot filled with 1 litre of water. Drizzle the artichokes with the olive oil. Cook, covered, over low-moderate heat for about 45 minutes or until leaves come away freely.
Drain and serve.
