Stuffed Artichokes

Stuffed Artichokes

Ingredients:

6 large artichokes
2 cups homemade breadcrumbs
3-4 Tbsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 garlic clove, minced

Instructions:

Cut off the stems and the pointed tips of the artichoke leaves. Wash and drain. Spread
the artichoke leaves.
Mix homemade breadcrumbs with olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper; mix well.
Press about 1/2 cup of stuffing into each artichoke. Tightly pack stuffed artichokes
together in a large heavy saucepan. Add enough water to reach half way up artichokes.
Sprinkle some olive oil over them. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce and
simmer, covered, for 1 hour, or until leaves pull out easily.
