• 1/4 tasse de ciboulette fraîche hachée

• 1/4 tasse de persil italien frais haché

• 2 anchovy fillets

• 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar with tarragon

• 45ml d'huile d'olive extra-vierge

• 120 ml de crème fraîche ou de crème aigre

• 240ml plus 2 tablespoons plain flour

• 1/2 cuillères à café de sel

• 180ml lager beer, room temperature

• 2 large eggs, separated

• 45ml d'huile d'olive extra-vierge, divisée

• 2 cuillères à soupe de jus de citron frais, divisé

• 1 1/2 cuillères à café de zeste de citron finement râpé

• 6 large artichokes

• Huile de colza (pour la friture)

• 2 cuillères à soupe de persil italien frais haché

• Lemon wedges (for garnish)

Combine first 4 ingredients in processor; blend until mixture is finely chopped. With machine running, add oil through feed tube; puree until mixture is almost smooth. Add crème fraîche; process until smooth. Transfer sauce to small bowl; season with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Rewhisk before using.

Sift flour and 1/2 teaspoons salt into medium bowl. Make well in centre of flour mixture; add beer, egg yolks, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and lemon peel and whisk until well blended. Let batter stand at room temperature at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours. Rewhisk before continuing.

Fill large bowl with water; add remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Using large knife, cut off top half of 1 artichoke, then cut off all but 3/4 inch of stem. Remove tough outer leaves until only 2 rows of tender green leaves remain in centre. Using vegetable peeler, peel stem. Cut artichoke lengthwise in half. Using paring knife, cut out prickly choke in centre; discard. Cut artichoke lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices; immediately place in lemon water. Repeat with remaining artichokes. Drain artichokes. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in large skillet over medium-low heat. Add artichokes and 120ml tap water to skillet; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bring to boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer until artichokes are tender and water evaporates, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and cool. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill.

Line large baking sheet with several layers of paper towels. Beat egg whites in medium bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold whites into batter, then fold in artichokes.

Pour enough canola oil into large saucepan to reach depth of 2 inches. Attach deep-fry thermometer to side of pan; heat oil to 191°C. Working in batches, drop artichoke mixture by tablespoonfuls into oil; fry until golden, turning often, about 2 minutes per batch. Using slotted spoon, transfer fritters to paper towels. Sprinkle with salt. Transfer fritters to platter; sprinkle with parsley. Garnish with lemon wedges. Serve sauce alongside.
