Instructions: 1. Drain the oil from the artichokes and reserve.

2. Roughly chop the artichokes.

3. Heat the reserved artichoke liquid and the butter in a frying pan.

4. Add the onions and cook for about 5 minutes until softened.

5. Add the chopped artichokes and heat through for about 3 minutes.

6. Reduce the heat and stir in the remaining ingredients, mixing well.

7. Remove the pan from the heat.
