A celebration of a delicious vegetable that’s only available for a limited time each year.

Ingredients

5 large tender globe artichokes
500g new baby potatoes
100g freshly shelled peas
100g freshly shelled broad beans
1 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 cup fresh breadcrumbs
2 tsp parsley, chopped
Pepper

Preparation

Remove old and loose leaves form the artichokes. With a sharp knife, cut off the stalk (this will be used later) and remove the fibrous skin. Slice off about 2cm from the top of the artichoke.

Make the filling by mixing bread crumbs, garlic, parsley and pepper. Place an artichoke in your hands and shake the leaves loose with your thumbs. Place stuffing between the leaves.

In a large saucepan, place the artichokes upright in the centre. Add potatoes around the artichokes. Put broad beans, peas and artichoke stalks on the top and sprinkle with remaining stuffing. Season with salt and pepper.

Drizzle olive oil over the top and fill the pan with water - enough to cover the artichokes.

Bring to the boil and then reduce heat to low, and cook uncovered for about 1 hour. Do not stir, just shake occasionally.

Serve with fresh crusty bread.
