Equipment

Ingredients

3 medium artichokes leaves pulled back to separate
1.5 c water

Artichoke Dip

1/2 c sour cream
3 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tsp garlic minced
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp dill I use dried in a jar
2 tbsp parmesan cheese grated/shredded

Instructions

Cut tops off your artichokes so pointy ends are cut off and top of artichoke is flat (as seen in top picture). Cut off bottom stems too so they sit flat in the vegetable basket.
Pour 1 1/2 c. water inside your Instant Pot.
Open your vegetable steamer, pull down little legs on bottom of steamer, and lower down into your pot.
Put 2-3 artichokes in the vegetable steamer. (do not overcrowd or they won't steam to tender without some room between them)
Open leaves just slightly and sprinkle with some salt.
Close lid and set to manual, high pressure for 12 minutes. Close steam valve.
When done allow steam to naturally release for 5 minutes and then release the rest, carefully lift lid off.
Sprinkle top of artichokes with a bit of salt and shredded parmesan cheese.
In a bowl mix all other ingredients listed above well and serve on the side as the perfect artichoke dip!
