Annarita De Maria's Fried Artichoke and Pecorino Cheese Fondue

Annarita is back from Acerra Italy with a fabulous recipe that we have to try!

If you follow her on Instagram at @Anna0folle - you will find a plethora of fabulous recipes - as she is always trying something new and fabulous.  She is a young and upcoming chef that makes the most mouth watering meals.  We only wish she lived closer so we could be her taste testers!

For this recipe she used:

  • Artichokes 
  • Lemon
  • Sunflower oil
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Heavy cream
  • Pecorino Cheese grated

Start by cleaning and cutting the artichoke as you will be using just the heart of the artichoke.

Cut it into 4 parts and remove the inner hairy part of the artichoke.

Soak them in water infused with lemon juice, then remove and dry them with a paper towel.

Fry them in a good amount of sunflower oil until cooked - and salt and pepper to  them to taste. 

In a pan on the stovetop - add heavy cream and heat.   Remove from heat right before the cream starts to boil, then add in a nice amount of Pecorino Cheese and stir until melted.  Salt and pepper as needed. 

On a plate ladle your Pecorino Fondue on the bottom and add your artichokes to the top with some cheese shavings and enjoy while warm!
