Artichokes & Broad Beans

This is from another splendidly-named food writer, Yotam Ottolenghi.

Ottolenghi can be found in Notting Hill, Islington, Kensington and Belgravia.

Ottolenghi: The Cookbook is published by Ebury Press, £25.

Nigel Slater writes up the recipe in the Observer, and has this to say about Ottolenghi:

Ottolenghi has been part of my life for some years now. I find it difficult to pass its doors without at least a peep at its Mediterranean delights. There is no more vibrant food store in London. Leaving there without a box of passion fruit tartlets or a slice or two of plum cake with my “good boy” broccoli salad requires more willpower than I currently possess. The fact that the proprietors Yotam Ottolenghi and his friend Sami Tamimi have been generous enough to put their recipes in a book is something I had long dreamed of.

(The lucky bastard receives a free copy of the cookbook.)
