How to prepare the garmugia alla lucchese
In a pan, brown the sliced onions and the finely chopped bacon in 4 tablespoons of oil.
As soon as the onions wilt, add the minced meat and after a few minutes add all the vegetables (clean the artichokes and cut them into small wedges).
Salt, cook for a few minutes then pour the broth.
Boil about 40 minutes, until the vegetables are completely cooked.
Serve the garmugia with toasted and diced toasted bread.
