Zeytinyağlı Enginar (Artichoke with Olive Oil)

Artichoke bottoms Turkish-style is a spectacular dish eaten alone, as an alternative to salad, or the traditional Turkish way as a part of a larger line-up of meze, or starters served before the main meal. The light flavors and seasoning with fresh dill weed accent rather than overpower the delicate flavor of the artichoke.

Trimming all the Leaves is one of the challenging task while cooking Artichoke. We can get the trimmed Artichoke from shop if we aren’t sure about how to trim the leaves. As a India, Artichoke is a new vgetable for me. I was so excited to try it at first as it looks different and interesting. It’s very nutritious, low in calories, carbs, and fat.
