Hi, Semra here…Aylins mom. Artichoke is probably my favorite vegetable, especially in summer. There are so many ways to prepare these and enjoy all season long. I shared a little video below to show you how I get them ready for the barbecue. After that, all you have to do is brush them with a mixture of chopped fresh herbs, chopped garlic, olive oil and Salt & Pepper before placing on the grill. When ready to serve, drizzle extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice and a little flaked sea salt. Great as an appetizer or as a side dish.
I hope you enjoy.
Xx, Semra
