Artichokes with Puree

Ingredients

• 4-6 artichokes
• 2 medium size onions
• 2 medium size potatoes
• 1 medium size carrot
• 5-6 table spoon olive oil (Riviera type)
• Salt, one piece of sugar, water

Directions

Chopped onions, peeled and sliced potatoes, peeled carrot, salt, sugar, water and artichokes together in a saucepan. Cook them around half an hour (check the cooking time with a toothpick). Put the artichokes on a service plate.
Mash potatoes with onions with a blender. Fill the artichokes with this blend. Slice (very thin) carrot to decorate artichokes. For a better decoration you can mince dill all around the service plate.
Instead of potatoes puree you can use fava instead.
