  10. Love these, but never really done them...

    Steps :

    1) Pull the stalk away from the base of the artichoke this will pull outs ome of inedible fibres with it

    2) Start to remove the outer leaves, working up from the bottomup.

    3) Keep going until you have removed nearly all of the outerleaves.

    4) Using a small paring knife, start to trim back the bottom of the artichoke.

    5) Keep trimming until the artichoke heart is exposed.

    6) Put the artichoke on its side and cut away the rest of the top leaves with a heavy knife.

    7) Trim the remaining leaves back until you are left with the little disc-shaped heart

    8) Use a teaspoon to scoop the fibres from the middle of the heart

    9) Slice the artichoke as thinly as possible, keeping the slices in acidulated water (water with a squeeze of lemon juice) to stop it from discolouring.
