Ingredients for 4 people:
- 8 big artichokes
- Persely
- 2 garlic cloves
- black pepper
- salt
- 1 leek
- extravirgin olive oil
- 30 g pecorino cheese
- 20 g parmesan
- 1 egg
- 1 bread soaked in water and wrung out
- brad crumbs
Remove the hardest leaves and tips from the artichokes and place them from time to time in a bowl with water and lemon. In a large pan with high sides, put the oil, sliced leek, a little parsley, salt and water (enough to cover the artichokes for three quarters). Boil for 10 minutes on medium heat. In a bowl mix the minced bread, parsley and garlic, a little oil, pepper, salt, egg, cheese and breadcrumbs to obtain a firm and soft dough. Drain the artichokes, enlarge the leaves and insert the dough. Place them standing in the pan and continue cooking for half an hour on a moderate heat. Leave to rest for at least half an hour before serving.
