09 Feb Artichoke Dip
If you have never before sampled the wonders of baked mayonnaise, you’re in for a treat. The ingredients list does read out like a cry for help, but believe me when I say that this is an understated, classy affair that would beat any other artichoke dip in a taste test/cracker-off, of which there are quite a few of here at home.
Artichoke Dip
- 1 tin (240g drained) artichokes in brine, drained and chopped to desired size
- 1 cup (240g) mayonnaise
- 1 cup (90 g) parmesan cheese (grated)
- Juice of 1 small lemon
- cayenne to sprinkle
1 Preheat oven to 180ºC/350ºF/Fan 160ºC
2 Drain the tinned artichokes and chop them finely. You can also throw the drained artichokes in a mixing bowl and use kitchen scissors to cut them into small pieces, if you want to avoid a mess.
3 Mix all of the remaining ingredients except the cayenne into the mixing bowl and stir to combine.
4 Place the wet artichoke mix into a quiche tin spreading evenly to cover the base of the quiche tin. It may look like a thin layer but this is perfect as it is quite a hearty mix of flavours.
5 Sprinkle with cayenne and place in the oven for 30 minutes.
6 Serve with dry salted crackers and spoons for easy scooping, or bake the above in ramekins for a dinner party or even add wilted spinach before baking.
