General - Preparing fresh Globe Artichokes

Cut off most of the stalk, cut 2.5cm/1- inch off the tip of the artichoke. Pull off any smaller leaves towards the base and on the stem and trim off the points of the outer leaves. Wash well then dry. Rub cut surfaces with lemon juice to prevent discolouring.
