Do they even have artichoke in the Philippines? Deep Fried Artichoke, I’m iffy about this one. Marketman, I would love try your lechon though. I will visit your place when we decide to visit the Philipipines.

For me, artichoke is best when baked and paired with grilled meat (lamb or beef)…

My favorite artichoke recipe is the artichoke-spinach dip. Chunky pieaces of artichoke with spinach, sour cream, cream cheese and grated parmesan mixed together and baked in 300 degrees for 30 minutes.

I love artichoke hearts, but have never had fresh artichokes, much less deep-fried. The deep-frying and resulting crispiness and caramelization must add a different layer altogether!

I have had bottled artichokes and as tapenade (I loved it). I’ve also had it simply steamed then dipped in butter with lemon zest (using teeth to scrape the insides of the petals) but never deep fried. Yum!

Last time I went to the US I really nagged my cousin that we should buy and try to cook artichokes because I’ve never tasted them fresh… only the canned ones.We had to searched the internet and she had to call her friend so we would know how to cook it properly.I was amused that it was like eating cabbage cactus, peeling the petals and then gritting with your teeth the small tender parts of each petal! LOL! Now I know better… only the heart! ;)

I’ve had artichokes steamed but, not fried…will soon try it. You got me curious. Now I have to try your recipe by frying them.
