Lemon
Salt
3 spring onion, chopped Onion
12 very small Onion
2 sliced Carrots
12 very small Potatoes
2 tablespoons Flour
1 cup Olive Oil

Directions:

Remove outer leaves of artichokes until tender ones remain and cut off 1-inch from the top.
Also remove choke from the centre and peel the base all around.
Place cleaned artichokes in salted water with lemon juice added to prevent discoluration.

Sprinkle with chopped dill or parsley, salt and pepper.
Add enough hot water to barely cover the vegetables.
Bring to boil, cover and simmer for 1 hour or bake (covered) in a moderate oven for 1 1/2 hours, until tender.
Serve artichokes with the other vegetables on a serving dish and sprinkle with dill or parsley.
Serves 6.
