A deliciously rich and creamy baked artichoke dip that is packed with the flavours of herbs and garlic, the tang of lemon and creaminess of the Greek yogurt and parmesan cheese.

A baked dip? Has she lost it completely now? Yes indeedy, this is a baked artichoke dip that is served warm.

And it’s super easy and fast to make and makes a nice change to the usual assortment of dips to offer your guests with their drinks and nibbles when you are entertaining.

As this artichoke dip is served warm it is perfect for chilly evenings with just chunks of fresh bread to dip into it.

Artichokes

Springtime in Greece means artichokes are in abundance. We were buying a carrier bag full for only 1 euro at the local market. Friends were giving us artichokes from their gardens when we were in the local Kefeneon.

There are so many ways you can use artichokes but I like this baked artichoke dip, it’s a bit different.

Ingredients for baked artichoke dip

This is a Greek recipe so of course has Greek yogurt, lemons, garlic, dried oregano, basil and olive oil among the other ingredients.

I’ve used artichokes from a jar. This means you can whip up this simple baked artichoke dip at any time of year and not just when you can chance upon artichokes in the shops.

The other ingredients are spring onions. They are lighter in flavour than standard onions and don’t overwhelm the delicious flavour of the artichokes in this dip recipe.

Parmesan cheese adds the cheesy element to this dip which makes it richer and so gooey and delicious.

Using oregano

Dried oregano is a staple in Greek cooking. Cretan oregano is fabulous if you can get it, packed with amazing flavour, if you can’t get Cretan then do look out for Greek oregano.

Actually, oregano is one of those herbs that actually tastes better dried than fresh. Basil on the other hand is way, way better in its fresh form.

How to serve baked artichoke dip

Serve this dip while it is still warm. It is delicious with chunky bread to dip in there.

A selection of raw veggies are perfect for serving with this dip.

Serve this baked artichoke dip as part of a full Greek meze sharing table.

As it’s a warm dip it really is a little bit of comfort food and perfect to have a bowl of this in front of the fire with some crusty bread and a good glass or two of wine.
