Instructions

Snap off any tough outer leaves of the artichokes, trim the stems and put them in a bowl  with water and lemon juice (this will prevent them from getting dark and brownish). In a small bowl mixt the roman mint, parsley, chopped garlic salt, pepper and breadcrumb.

Use the mixture to fill the cavity of each artichoke.

Place the artichokes in a deep pan of the right diameters so that they stay close, add oil and let them become golden brown.

Add one cup of warm water, cover and simmer  for 30 minutes.
