Recipe for WMF Aromatic cookware

Zutaten

4 Personen

6 Small Italian artichokes
1 Organic lemon
Each of salt & sugar
For the aioli:
1 Garlic
1 Egg yolk
A little lemon juice
125 ml Neutral vegetable oil
1 tsp. Smoked paprika powder
Salt & pepper as required
750 ml Frying oil
1 tsp. Smoked paprika powder
Lemon slices

Preparation

Schritt 1

OUR WMF TIP IN ADVANCE: The Fusiontec Aromatic pot is superior for frying compared to many other pots because its special alloy provides excellent heat distribution and retention. This ensures a constant oil temperature, which is crucial for even and crispy frying. Additionally, the wide pouring rim makes it easy to pour out the oil safely, and the heat-reducing hollow handles ensure safe handling.

Schritt 2

First, clean the artichokes, halve them, remove the woody leaves, and peel the stems. Halve the lemon. Slice one half into very thin slices and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and sugar. Squeeze the juice from the other half.

For the aioli: Peel and finely grate the garlic. In a bowl, mix the egg yolk with a bit of lemon juice. Gradually stir in the oil slowly until a creamy consistency is achieved. Add the chopped garlic and paprika powder and mix well. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
