(Artichokes in my own way - Our recipe)

Time: a few minutes 12 artichokes; 1 bunch of fresh parsley; 2 little fresh onions; 5 tablespoons olive oil; Salt easy recipe

  Spoon measures are American spoons, that is standard cook's measuring spoons used in USA.
  The best plan is to regard 2 American teaspoons or tablespoons as 1 English teaspoon or tablespoon (eating spoons)

Prepare artichokes. Snap off the stalk close to the base, pulling out any fibbers which would extend into the bottom. Cut off the pointed top and, using kitchen scissors, trim the leaves to remove spines and any brown edges. Separate the leaves and run under cold water. The artichokes are ready to be cooked.
Cut them into slices and put them in a saucepan with the olive oil, onions, thinly sliced and parsley, finely chopped. Add a ladle of water. Cover and cook at low flame, stirring, until tender. Cooking times are about 15-20 minutes.
You can add a clove of garlic, if you like.
