Directions
2. Chill the yogurt dressing very thoroughly.
3. Trim off the stem from the base of each globe artichoke. Cut off the top of each artichoke about 2 cm (3/4 inch) down.
4. Rub the cut surfaces of the artichoke with the derinded 1/2 lemon.
5. Lower the prepared globe artichokes into a large pan of boiling water; bring back to the boil, and cook covered for about 30 minutes, until the artichokes are tender. (Pull off one leaf; nibble the end and if it is tender then the artichoke is cooked.)
6. Leave the artichokes upside-down on a clean tea towel until thoroughly drained.
7. Stand each artichoke upright on a small serving plate, and serve the chilled yogurt dressing in a separate bowl.
