Also known as: Αγκινάρες με κουκιά
A Greek lathera stew of artichoke bottoms, broad beans, tomato, onions, dill and olive oil.

About Agkinares Me Koukia
Agkinares me koukia is a traditional Greek lathera stew of artichokes and broad beans cooked generously with olive oil. Billie Bitzas's selected version adds red and green onions, garlic, dill and tomato sauce for a one-pot main dish.
Artichokes and broad beans give the stew a vegetal, earthy flavour, brightened by dill and sweetened by softened onion and tomato. Olive oil brings the rounded richness associated with Greek lathera cooking.
The finished stew is soft and spoonable, with halved artichoke bottoms and broad beans held in a red tomato-and-olive-oil sauce. Green dill and spring onion add fresh colour around the tender vegetables.
