Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large fresh artichoke bottoms, including stem (or canned or frozen)
1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
1 large beefsteak tomato, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about 1/2 lemon)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1/3 cup chopped scallion
4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place artichoke bottoms in a small saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until the artichokes are very soft, about 20 minutes.
  • Drain.
  • When cool enough to handle, finely chop the artichokes and place in a medium-size mixing bowl.
  • Add the onion, tomato, lemon juice, olive oil, sesame oil, scallions, cilantro, salt, and pepper and gently mash with a fork. Enjoy!
