Preparing fresh artichokes can be so labour intensive and expensive. I just buy jarred artichoke hearts as it means they are always to hand to chick in stews salad or as an extra topping on a pizza.

Ingredients (serves 2)

For the croutons

• I thick slice of stale bread
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tsp fresh rosemary chopped, can use I tsp of dried
• Good pinch of sea salt

For the dressing

• 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1/2 tbsp runny honey
• 1 tbsp olive oil (eco)
• Juice 1/2 lemon
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

For the salad

• 1 baby gem lettuce, chopped roughly
• 4 artichoke hearts, quartered
• 1 ball buratta

Directions

1. To make the croutons tear the bread into pieces and place in a bowl. Add the olive oil, rosemary and salt. Give everything a good mix so the bread is coed with the oil, rosemary and salt. Pop the croutons in the air fryer at 200 degrees for 10 minutes or until crispy.
2. Make the dressing by adding all the ingredients into a jar or bowl shake or whisk to combine.
3. In a bowl toss the salad with the dressing.
4. Add the artichoke hearts , tear over the burrata and finish off with crispy croutons. Enjoy 😊
