Peel the potatoes, quarter them or cut them into not too small slices or cubes. Rinse the artichoke hearts, cut with scissors the prickly tips to the fleshy thickenings and shorten with the kitchen knife the flower by about 1/3, remove the bristly hay on the artichoke base, cut the stem base small.

Cut the artichokes into quarters and put them in a saucepan with the potatoes, sprinkle them generously with olive oil, add the chopped parsley, two or three garlic cloves cut into quarters (do not press them), the chopped peppers and salt, fill the saucepan with water – about 1/3 more than the vegetables are covered with – and simmer for 40 minutes on medium heat so that they cook gently.

When the stew is ready, the water will have a greenish color and drops of oil will float on the clear liquid. Artichoke hearts and potatoes must be soft but not disintegrated.

The light dish is accompanied by a thin, double-baked flatbread, which is placed in the plate at the beginning and then soaks up the soup. The bread is made of yeast, water, durum wheat semolina and malt, and is more like pasta than a traditional bread in flavor. Depending on the area, plain stale bread is also eaten as a chowder in Sardinia.

This dish has the reputation of a liver and gall bladder cure and in Sardinia comes with the artichokes
