Flava Bean and Artichoke with Turmeric Rice

1. Place the oven on 170o/gas 3.

2. In a pan of boiling water cook the lava beans for 4 mins on high boil. Straight away add them to the bowl full with water and ice, this will help the skins come off. Peel off the skins and put aside.

3. Prepare the artichokes by peeling the layers until you get to the softer inner layers and cut off the core tops. Slice in half and with a small spoon dig out the fluffy chokes heart and immediately place them in a bowl with cold water with ice and 1/2 a lemon’s juice. (You may want to use gloves for this as artichokes leak bitter fluid, which has a way of staining your fingers.) Once the artichokes are peeled drain the water and add the spices to the bowl to coat them with some salt.

4. On a baking tray lay a sheet of parchment paper and place the artichokes face down. Add another squeeze of lemon and add the ghee. Roast for 20 mins on 170o/gas 3.

5. Make the dressing by adding the sauce ingredients together and mixing them well.

6. Once they have become crispy and browned at the edges take them out and place with the fava’s on a plate. Smother with the sauce and serve with a slice on lemon.
