Remove the lower leaves of the artichokes and trim the stem and top.

Cook them in boiling water with salt and lemon pieces for about 15-20 minutes or until softened.

Preheat the oven to 355°F (180°C).

Transfer the artichokes to a tray lined with baking paper and gently spread open the leaves. Drizzle with a little olive oil and generously sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and garnish with a little lemon zest and lemon juice.
