Step 1
Prepare the artichokes before cooking. To do this, cut off their tops. You can also remove the inedible core, but this can be done after cooking as well. It is important that the artichokes are fresh, otherwise the dish won't be as delicious.

Step 2
Place the artichokes in an enameled pot. If you use another type of pot, they may simply darken, spoiling the dish's appearance. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the artichokes and place the lemon half into the pot. Pour in water, add spices, and put the pot on the stove.

Boil the artichokes for about forty minutes until done. You can check this by piercing the artichoke with a knife in the center. It should be completely soft.
