Categories: Appetizers, Vegetables, Artichokes, *Greek


3 cups frozen artichokes ; thawed
1 medium onion ; sliced
3 cloves garlic ; crushed
1 pound new potatoes ; unpeeled quartered
2 cups chicken stock ; fresh or canned
1/2 cup fresh parsley ; chopped
3 tablespoon olive oil
freshly-ground black pepper ; to taste
salt ; to taste

Saute the onions and garlic in the oil until almost transparent. Add
the parsley, potatoes and chicken stock and cook, covered, for 10 to
15 minutes or until the potatoes are just barely tender.
Add the artichokes and simmer, covered, for another 10 minutes. Add
salt and pepper to taste.

Comments: When you walk into a Greek restaurant kitchen to look at
the food -- and you are expected to do this in Greece -- you will very
often find a great pan of artichokes and potatoes sitting in a steam
table.

The olive oil used is rich and aromatic, and the artichokes are fresh
and tender. You cannot help but point at the pan and yell "Yes!".

This dish is too good to limit to the artichoke season. I make them
with frozen chokes and the results are not bad. Fresh artichokes may
be substituted in this recipe.
