Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Prepare the artichokes by trimming the stems and removing the tough outer leaves.

In a bowl, combine bread crumbs, chopped parsley, minced garlic, grated parmesan cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.

Mix in the pine nuts and currants until evenly distributed.

Stuff each artichoke with the bread crumb mixture, pressing down to pack it tightly.

Place the stuffed artichokes upright in a baking dish.

Pour vegetable broth and water into the baking dish until it reaches about halfway up the artichokes.

Drizzle the tops of the artichokes with additional olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the tops are golden and crispy.

Let the artichokes cool slightly before serving.
