-
6 Sardinian artichokes

1 head of radicchio salad
-
300gr fava beans
-
100gr cherry tomatoes
-
30 bottarga flakes

4 lemons

Fresh chilli

Black pepper

With a sharp knife cut about an inch off the top of the artichoke and remove the bitter, fibrous end of the stem leaving about an inch left on the artichoke. Keep a lemon handy to rub onto the exposed areas so that they do not oxidize and turn brown.
-
Peel off the external hard leaves and using your knife remove the remaining outer leaves.
-
Cut artichoke in half lengthwise to remove the furry, inedible centre area and slice the artichoke thinly.
-
On a serving plate, place the radicchio leaves, anchovies previously chopped, the sliced artichokes, and the rest of the ingredients leaving the bottarga and lemon juice last.
