Categories     appetizer

Time 35m

Yield 6 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 lemons, halved
12 baby artichokes
3 cups olive oil
Sea salt

Steps:

  • Fill a large bowl halfway with water. Squeeze the lemon halves into the water and add the lemons. Trim the stem of 1 artichoke. Starting at the base, bend the tough outer leaves back and pull off where they break naturally. Using a vegetable peeler, peel the dark green skin from the base. Halve the artichoke lengthwise and scoop out any choke. Add to the lemon water. Repeat with the remaining artichokes.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy large saucepan over medium heat until a thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Drain the artichokes and pat dry. Working in 2 batches, add the artichokes to the hot oil and cook until they are tender and golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon or tongs, transfer the fried artichokes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Sprinkle with salt while artichokes are still warm and serve.

FRIED MARINATED ARTICHOKES

Categories     Fry     Artichoke

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

Vegetable oil, for frying
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
12-ounce can lager-style beer (any light beer will do)
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
Three 6-ounce jars artichoke hearts, drained well, patted dry, then quartered
Rémoulade, for serving (see page 204)

Steps:

  • Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat.
  • Whisk together the flour and salt in a large bowl. Slowly pour in the beer, whisking to make a smooth batter. Whisk in the lemon zest.
  • Dredge the artichokes in the batter, and let the excess drip back into the bowl. When the oil is ready, fry the artichokes, in batches, until batter is crisp and golden, about 5 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels, and season with salt. Serve hot, with rémoulade for dipping.

Tips:

  • Choose the right artichokes. Look for artichokes that are heavy for their size, with tightly closed leaves and no brown spots.
  • Trim the artichokes properly. Cut off the stem and about 1 inch of the top of the artichoke. Remove the tough outer leaves until you reach the pale green leaves.
  • Soak the artichokes in water. This will help to prevent them from browning.
  • Make sure the batter is the right consistency. It should be thick enough to coat the artichokes, but not too thick that it's difficult to work with.
  • Fry the artichokes in hot oil. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Drain the artichokes on paper towels. This will help to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the artichokes with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include melted butter, garlic aioli, or ranch dressing.

Conclusion:

Deep-fried artichokes are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish. By following these tips, you can make sure that your artichokes are perfectly cooked and crispy. So next time you're looking for a new way to enjoy this versatile vegetable, give deep-fried artichokes a try!
