1

Sauté the vegetables

8 min

Heat the olive oil in a pot. Add the onion and carrot and sauté until softened.

2

Add the artichokes

Quarter the cleaned artichokes and add them to the pot. Add the lemon juice and sauté for 5 minutes.

3

Add the rice and water

5 min

Add the drained rice and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the hot water and salt, then bring to a boil.

4

Cook over low heat

17 min

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Cook until the artichokes and rice are tender and the liquid has been absorbed.

5

Rest and serve

Reminder
