- Using a knife, cut off the stem and the top of the artichoke.
- In a medium-sized saucepan, place artichoke head down with ½ a lemon. Cover with water and season generously with salt and pepper.
- Bring to a boil, cover and simmer from 25 to 30 minutes or until the centre of the artichoke is tender when poked with a knife. Drain well.
