الانغينار بالليمون والجبنة
Lemon and parmesan stuffed artichoke bottoms are a delicious and impressive appetizer or main course for two.
The Ingredients
This recipe calls for 12-14 small artichoke bottoms. You can use fresh artichokes, but trimming them is a time-consuming process. I use either frozen or canned artichoke bottoms that are ready to use. The only thing I do to prep the artichokes is to trim the bottom so that they are level.
It is very important that you use freshly-grated Parmesan cheese, not the powdered version. Trust me. The first time I made this recipe, I used powdered Parmesan cheese that ended up being way too much cheese (by volume) and completely overwhelmed the dish.
