Serves 4-6:
4-6 fresh artichokes
½ - 1/3 cup olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, grated
8 scallions, thinly sliced
2 carrots, sliced
4 small - medium potatoes, quartered
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup frozen green peas, thawed
¼ cup finely chopped fresh dill
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (or less)
1-2 lemons, sliced in half for rubbing on artichokes
1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional)
Cook the finely chopped onion with the olive oil in a pot over low heat until soft and golden. About 10-15 minutes.
In the meantime, carefully peel the artichokes.
Keep a large bowl halfway filled with ice water and 1-2 lemons cut in half inside the water.
Remove the outer leaves of the artichoke and the hairy choke. Rub it all over with lemon and place in the bowl of water. This will keep them from turning brown.
Add the grated garlic to the pot and warm through. Add scallions and cook over low heat until soft. About 5 minutes.
Add the carrot and all-purpose flour. Mix it and cook for 1-2 minutes over high heat.
Add the artichokes, potatoes and season with salt and pepper.
Pour enough water in the pot to almost cover the vegetables.
Bring to a boil then cover the pot with the lid. Reduce to a medium low heat and cook about 45 minutes or until the vegetables are fully cooked and tender.
Taste and add more salt and pepper in needed.
Add the green peas and stir to combine.
Combine the lemon juice with the cornstarch in a small bowl and mix to dissolve. Begin with a small quantity of lemon juice (1/4 cup) because sometimes lemons are very strong and somewhat bitter. You can always add more lemon juice afterwards.
Note: If you prefer your artichoke stew more on the brothy side, do not add the cornstarch. The addition of cornstarch gives it a creamy velvety texture while thickening it a little bit.
Add the lemon juice and cornstarch mixture to the pot and mix to combine.
Bring to a boil and taste once again for seasoning and add more lemon if desired.
Top with the chopped fresh dill and serve.
The stew will thicken as it sits and tastes wonderful with toasted bread. Enjoy!

Thanks for watching! I'd love to see your recreations of these dishes so please share pics with me on social media :)

Thank you so much. I live in South Africa and have grown artichokes in my garden and have cooked them but have never prepared them as shown. Can't wait for spring. By the way artichokes are easy to grow in a warm climate. Yes please, some vegetarian dishes will be nice. Love your channel.
Thank you for this recipe ! We always buy this frozen when we go to Boston to the Greek store - I’m totally making this!
And most of my family are pescatarian so yes, more vegetarian dishes !
you're so lucky!!! I have to check and see if the mediterranean superstore about 45 mins away from me has them frozen... I'll keep posting vegetarian recipes as often as possible :)
So delicious and healthy, love this vegetarian dish. Please share more ideas like this thank you!
It looks delicious! I bought 4 fresh artichokes and I will be attempting this dish today. Appreciate your step by step demo 💖
Thank you. Really liked this.
My favorite dish !
I never used fresh artichokes now I will 👍🏻
Awesome :) Enjoy!!
We just made this stew and it was an all around hit!!!♥️
Appetizing recipe - thank you for the recipe Dimitra.
You're welcome. Enjoy :)
I just found you on RUclips and I’m loving your recipes !
Thank you so much Dimitra.. this looks awesome.. Ps you make cutting artichokes easy 😀
It really isn't that hard, but if you can find the frozen, already cleaned artichokes then go for it!!!
Yumm love artichokes...
Fabulous. I have a couple of cans of artichoke bottoms. I’m anxious to try this. I use them in chicken dishes and often with a poached egg in the bottom slathered with hollandaise. Thanks much.
That sounds delicious. I will have to make that soon :)
Lovely
Excellent dish , highly recommended
Thank you. It is very flavorful.
Aaa I LOVE your Chanel. Love greek food. Have been traveling all around greece and The Islands. I live in sweden and watch your Chanel so i can dream away to greece ❤️❤️
Can you maby present the Tomato keftedes? Had it in santorini ❤️omg.
And maybe some more veggie recepies. ❤️❤️❤️❤️Love u
I was about to just comment that request for ntomatokeftedes (tomato keftedes) I asked Dimitra at one point if she can do ntomatokeftedes (tomato keftedes) if she gets a chance.
Thank you so much!! I love domatokeftedes too. As a matter of fact, the tomatoes in Greece just can't be beat. Every time I come back from a trip, I can't eat tomatoes (supermarket variety) for MONTHS!!! Take care :)
It's best to either grow your own tomatoes and get tomatoes at the farmer's market.
Thank you Dimitra, I was never sure what to do with artichokes, or how to cut them up.
It's much easier than it looks :)
Great food.
Can I use canned artichoke hearts to make this? I have a cabinet full of canned artichoke hearts because my husband loves them in his salad. And thank you for your awesome videos. I just love watching them!!!!
Not for this one. Frozen artichoke hearts would work, but if you give it a try with the canned hearts, let me know how it turns out. Best wishes!!
Aginares!!
I'll try to make this soon. I wish you can do the Santorini style ntomatokeftedes (tomato keftedes) whenever you can. I have to agree with you about this crappy SN FB. One of my friend that made ntomatokeftedes (tomato keftedes) deactivated his FB account and he also deactivated the fan page I was following him in which sucks. I'm blaming FB for "Deactivate your account" put on all of our profiles
Yes, I will get to the domatokeftedes very soon :)
I especially hate that you have to pay so that content can be seen :/ not to mention all those politics!!! Hate it!!!
If using frozen artichokes when do you out them in the pot?
Can u use frozen arthicokes instead of fresh one ???
Can you make this a egg lemon sauce?
Please more vegan meals
