Fried artichokes are usually served whole in Rome as a primo piatto, but we found that cutting them into wedges before frying made them a finger-friendly and addictive hors d'oeuvre.

Active time: 1 hr Start to finish: 1 hr

Cooks' note:

• Artichokes can be simmered in oil (at 220°F) 4 hours ahead. Drain artichokes and keep at room temperature, then fry just before serving.
