In Naples, Italy they are referred to as Carciofi alla giudia" or "dorato fitto" which means golden fried. Although this recipe is not time-consuming and only contains five ingredients,  it is simply delicious.

In Naples, Italy they are referred to as “dorato fitto” which means golden fried, and in Rome, they are known as “carciofi alla giudia”. Although this recipe is not time-consuming and only contains five ingredients,  it is simply delicious!

  • Vegetable Oil for Frying

Directions:

1. Heat oil in fry pan. In separate bowl whisk cheese, eggs, parmigiano, salt, and pepper.

2. Fully cover artichoke hearts with flour, and place them into the egg mixture so they are entirely coated.
