Ingredients:
- 4 slices ofHam from Teruel PDO Antonio Mata
- 1 onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 2 carrots
- Mushrooms
- ExtraVirgin Olive Oil
- Salt
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1 lemon
Preparation:
The first
thing is to clean the artichokes: remove the leaves and cut the stem, so that
we have left only the heart of the artichoke. Boil for about 15 minutes in
water with some salt and a splash of lemon (it’s important they take this lemon
flavour). When it’s ready, drain and reserve.
Chop an
onion, garlic, carrots and mushrooms (in quite small dices). Put everything in
a pan with olive oil and fry. Cut the cured ham slices into smaller pieces, or
strips, and add to the pan (do not wait more than a minute, the ham is fried
very fast). Add the artichoke hearts, half a glass of white wine and half
water. We let him do a little and when hearts are slightly golden, is that
you're all set.
To serve,
put the artichoke hearts and make a little hole in the middle. Fill with
vegetables and cured ham. We can add the liquid or sauce remaining in the pan,
this will have much flavour.
