Artichoke leaf recipe

By Micail Swindells and Dom Horsey

Micail and Dom share a cheeky tip for making the Artichoke leaf that they have learnt from Geranium, a 3 Michelin star restaurant in Denmark.

The idea is not to just copy, but to understand the process that they have developed, get inspiration, and take different elements or ideas and make our own unique dishes.
