Stuffed Artichokes with Meat

Artichoke is one of the vegetables that I love to consume, I think it is sweet to eat because a lot of effort is put into it. So much so that I sacrificed a nail and carving a zucchini so that I could remove the feathers of the artichokes last night :)

Although at first it seemed like the artichokes were winning, they finally became our dinner :)

Now let me tell you what we should pay attention to when choosing artichokes, and what we can do to prevent it from darkening.

1. First we have to choose fresh artichokes. So how can you tell if an artichoke is fresh: The leaves should be crispy, green and shiny.
2. You can rub it with salted half a lemon so that the artichoke does not turn black. If the peeling process will take a long time or you will not use it immediately, you can store it in plenty of lemon water.
3. If you find it difficult to use a knife while shortening the leaves, you can use scissors.
4. You can use a sturdy pumpkin carving or spoon to get rid of the most annoying lint.
5. In order for the artichokes to cook well, you must keep the lid closed and open it to check its juice. If you run out of water, you can add hot water.
