How to make the sauteed artichokes
Clean the artichokes removing the outer leaves, tips, stems and, with the tip of a knife, the beard. Cut them in half and pass them in cold water and lemon juice.
Heat the oil in a pan, add the garlic and the artichokes, then season with salt, chili powder and marjoram. During cooking, add a few tablespoons of hot water mixed with the wine once in a while.
Meanwhile, fry the bread slices in the lard and cut them into two parts. When cooked, pour the artichokes into a slightly concave serving dish and surround with the fried bread slices.
