    The origins of this recipe

    The creator of this recipe is Mindy Arbo and I would like to thank her for posting this incredible recipe.
    I love every single ingredient in it, so I decided to give it a try. A great success!

    Don't be surprised when you look at the ingredients, yes there is mayonnaise and it is baked. After all, isn't Mayonnaise made with eggs and oil? The result is fantastic and making it cannot be easier.

    In this recipe, I use frozen artichokes but if you cannot find frozen artichokes you can use fresh ones. If you don't know how to clean fresh artichokes follow the instructions below.

    all ingredients into a bowl

    How to clean an artichoke

    Cleaning artichokes is easy but a time-consuming task and the original recipe uses frozen artichokes, so you can use those if you want to save time. But if you can only find fresh ones and you don’t know how to clean them, it is very easy.

    Before you get started, wear a pair of gloves as artichokes stain. Then follow the instructions below:

    1. First, remove the external hard leaves, until the yellow flesh appears.
    2. Then remove all the dark green tops of the leaves which have no meat and end with spikes.
    3. Last you peel off the green layer of the steam.
    Cleaning an artichoke
    1. Immediately immerse the artichokes in water and lemon otherwise they turn black
    immerse in lemon and water
    1. Cut the artichokes into quarters
    2. Cut the internal leaves
    Removing the internal leaves and
    1. Slice them in half
    2. Boil them in salted water for 20 minutes

    Recipe using frozen artichokes

    1. If you are using frozen artichokes cook them in a microwave for 5 minutes. If you are using fresh artichokes or you don't have a microwave, boil them for 20 minutes in salted water as in instructions above.
    2. In a food processor blend the cooked artichokes, garlic, mayo, Parmesan and lemon juice (optional)
    3. Butter 4 small pots
    4. Pour the mix into a pan
    5. Top with some extra parmesan and pepper
    6. Cook in the oven at 355 F - 180 C for 30/35 minutes, depending on how large and thick is the layer of the artichoke mix.

    1. Serve hot with slices of rustic bread

    How to serve it

    This artichoke dip is served hot, right out of the oven. It has a nice crust of parmesan on top and a creamy centre. The guests can just dip a piece of bread right into it. I usually make 2 pots so they can be placed at the two ends of the table.

    If the dinner is more formal I make a little pot for each guest.  With the quantities in this recipe, you can make 6 pots.

    It is very important not to use a pot that it is too large as the mix will be too thin. If too thin it risks burning and will not be as creamy in the centre. You need to have a minimum 1 in or 2.5 centimetres of artichoke mix to dip into.
