Pressure Cooked Braised Artichokes

IMG_7082 

The Grays love artichokes. And the pressure cooker makes them a quick weeknight endeavor. Here’s our favorite recipe.

2 C water

juice of 1 lemon

1 bouillon cube

1 clove garlic

1 1/2 Tbs fresh or dried parsley

4 Tbs olive oil

2-4 artichokes, stems removed

Mix the braising ingredients in your pressure cooker and place artichokes therein:

Seal your cooker and set the stove top heat to medium high. Once she starts singing, reduce the heat to medium low and cook for 15-18 minutes. Release the pressure valve, remove the artichokes and pour about 1/2 C braising liquid into a bowl. Whisk 2-4 tablespoons of butter into the liquid (depending on how buttery you like your dipping sauce).
