Six minute Artichokes


Put 1 cup water, one chopped garlic clove, one chopped onion, a few sprigs of parsley and a bay leaf in a pressure cooker.  Pull off the hard outer leaves, cut 1 inch off of top and cut the bottom so that they sit flat.  Put steamer basket in pressure cooker.  Place artichokes in them upright, so that they don't touch the sides.  Cook for 6 minutes at high pressure.  Bring pressure down quickly.  If not tender, replace lid and cook another two minutes.  Serve with aioli, or mayo, and rose.

Just ate them.  Think I will start the timer when I close the pressure cooker rather than when it comes to full pressure.  I think they were slightly overdone.
