Ingredients
- 4 thornless Romanesco artichokes
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Instructions
Remove the tough outer leaves from the artichokes. Trim the fibrous part of the stem.
Tap the artichokes upside down on a cutting board to open the leaves.
Coat the artichokes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Ensure seasoning penetrates between the leaves.
Place the artichokes upside down in the cooking basket. Cook at 355°F (180°C) for 10 minutes.
Turn the artichokes upright. Cook for an additional 5 minutes at 400°F (200°C) until the leaves are crisp.
