Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
- 2 lb. young sunchokes
- 3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 large anchovy fillets
- 2 large cloves garlic
- 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper
- 3 Tbsp. unsalted butter
- 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- 1 Tbsp. chopped parsley
- Several wedge lemon
Directions
- Step 1Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the vegetable oil. Add the sunchokes, cut side down, and cook over moderately high heat for 1 minute. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes, until the sunchokes are golden brown and tender.
- Step 2Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat the olive oil. Add the anchovies, garlic, and crushed red pepper and cook over low heat until the anchovies are sizzling, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Stir in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a shallow bowl and keep warm.
- Step 3Spoon the sunchokes onto a platter. Garnish with the parsley and serve with the warm bagna cauda and lemon wedges.
