Serves 4

INGREDIENTS

4 or 5 very large artichokes

2 lemons, halved

4 tablespoons (2 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature about 2 tablespoons heavy cream

METHOD

1.Trim away the leaves from the artichokes to expose the bottoms. Rub the cut surfaces with lemon to prevent oxidation.

2.Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the juice of half a lemon and the artichoke bottoms, cover with a linen towel or several sheets of paper towels and cook until the artichokes are tender, 40 to 50 minutes.

3.Remove the artichokes and drain. Remove and discard the fiber from the center of the chokes.

4.Use hand blender to purée the artichoke bottoms with the butter. Pass the purée through a tamis or fine strainer into a heavy saucepan and heat through. Stir in the cream and correct the seasonings with salt, pepper and lemon juice.

PRESENTATION
