Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz Canned artichoke hearts
- 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 cup Soda water
- 2 cups Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
Drain the canned artichoke hearts and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Cut each artichoke heart in half lengthwise.
In a medium bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, dried oregano, and paprika. Mix well.
Pour the soda water into the dry ingredients gradually, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
In a large skillet or heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to check the temperature. If you don't have a thermometer, test by dropping a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle and float to the surface immediately.
Dip each artichoke heart half into the batter, making sure it is fully coated. Let any excess batter drip off before placing it gently into the hot oil.
Fry the artichokes in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook them for about 2-3 minutes per side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the artichokes from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain off any excess oil.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving, if desired. Serve the crispy fried artichokes immediately to enjoy their maximum crispiness.
