There's nothing better than preparing a recipe for someone that doesn't even like that particular food, but then he\/she ends up loving<\/strong> it. Do you agree?
Do you believe me if I say that my boyfriend didn't like artichokes, but then he ate these and \"😍\"
This is the reason why today I really want to \"teach\" you how to make roasted artichoke halves<\/strong> [with lemon and toum<\/em> in this case]. They're bomb and you'll end up appreciating them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Look at these globe artichokes' colors: aren't they so beautiful?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It's easy to learn how to make roasted artichoke halves...<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I swear, it's veeery easy and, after you learn how-to, it will also be quick!<\/strong>
The only thing that could bother you though, is finding out that you buy one artichoke and you'll probably only eat half of it or even less.
The reason is simple: they are not 100% edible. Softest parts are the hearts<\/strong> and the first couple of centimeters (about one inch) of the stems. <\/strong>I usually also like to strip off the tender parts of the petals, that's why I cook the whole artichoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My mom instead only bakes the hearts. And THAT, my friend, is my favorite recipe EVER (maybe I'll share it one day). She roasts potatoes and artichokes hearts together. Slow cooked. They becomes so tender that they almost melt in your mouth. HEAVENLY.<\/strong>
Also, that's the only recipe that my boyfriend eats. But now he tried these roasted artichoke halves I made and he finally started appreciating them!
So if you're not into artichokes that much, try this recipe first!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
