  Anginares me anitho - artichokes with dill
 
Servings: 8
 
12 md Globe artichokes      1 Lemon (juice only) Lemon slices
3 tb Flour (optional)      1/2 c Chopped scallinos white only
1/4 c Olive or other oil      1 Lemon (juice only)
3 c Water Salt Freshly ground white pepper      2 tb Finely chopped dill
3 ts Cornflour Cold water      2 Eggs Chopped dill for garnish Serves: 4 as a light meal
8 as a first course
 Cooking time: 45-50 minutes Wash artichokes well and cut off stem close to base. Have ready a bowl of cold water with the juice of 1 lemon and some lemon slices added. If desired stir in 2-3 tablespoons flour as this is quite effective in preventing discoloration. As each artichoke is prepared rub cut surfaces with a lemon slice from the bowl and place in bowl until all are prepared. Cook as soon as possible after preparation. Remove 3 or 4 layers of leaves until the tender inner leaves remain. Scoop out choke and pink thorny leaves from centre using a spoon or melon ball scoop. Cut in half. In a large pan gently fry spring onion in oil until soft. Add juice of 1/2 lemon water about 2 teaspoons salt and a good grinding of pepper. Bring to the boil. Drain prepared artichokes and add to pan with dill. Return to a slow simmer cover and simmer gently for 30 minutes or until artichokes are tender. Stain cooking liquid into a pan and boil until reduced to half original quantity (about 1-1/2 cups). Keep artichokes hot in a slow oven. Mix cornflour to a paste with a little cold water and stir into simmering liquid. Stir until thickened and bubbling and leave to simmer gently. Beat eggs in a mixing bowl until light and frothy and gradually add remaining lemon juice. Gradually pour in simmering stock beating constantly. Return to pan and stir over low heat for a minute or 2 to cook the egg. Pile artichokes on a warm platter pour sauce on top and sprinkle with chopped dill. Serve as a light meal or as a first course.
