Steps:
- Dredge the lamb lightly with flour. Heat the oil in a large heavy casserole and brown the lamb pieces a few at a time, on all sides, turning them with tongs. Remove the browned pieces to a bowl.
- Add the stock, garlic, tomatoes, tomato paste and white wine. Scrape up the cooking juices with a spoon, stir well, and return the lamb pieces to the casserole along with the thyme, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat.
- After the meat has simmered for 30 minutes add the carrots. After 15 more minutes, add the onions. Cook the stew for one-and-a-half to two hours total, or until the meat is tender.
- Meanwhile, trim the tops (cutting off about two-thirds of an inch) and stalks from the artichokes. Remove tough outer leaves. Slice the artichokes vertically top to bottom in quarter-inch pieces. Place them in a large bowl filled with water and lemon juice to stop them from turning brown.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Saute the artichokes until brown and keep warm. Add the garlic to the skillet and cook just enough to change color. Sprinkle over the top of the artichokes. Just before serving the stew, sprinkle the artichokes over the top.

Steps:
- For the lamb: Trim the lamb shoulder to remove all the fat and cube into medium size pieces. In a Dutch oven or large sauce pot heat the olive oil until hot and saute the onions until soft, about 3 to 4 minutes. Next, add the lamb pieces and cook for approximately 2 to 4 minutes. Add the saffron, pepper, parsley, bay leaves, 1 tablespoon cumin, and 1/3 teaspoon turmeric. Mix well and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Add the water, cover the pot, reduce the heat and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour. When the lamb is tender, transfer it to a separate casserole with a small amount of sauce to keep it warm. To the sauce add 1/2 cup green olives and allow the sauce to cook for 3 more minutes. Pour the sauce and artichokes over the lamb on the casserole plate and garnish the plate with fresh lemon slices as well as preserved lemon slices, and freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
- For the Artichokes with Lemons and Olives: Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or stock pot, add onions, garlic, saffron, black pepper, cumin, salt and bay leaves, stir well and bring to a boil. Drain the artichokes from cold water and put in the casserole, cook for about 20 to 30 minutes. Then add olives, lemon juice and preserved lemon, reduce heat for another 10 minutes, and let simmer. Serve in a platter, pour lemon juice over artichokes and garnish with thin slices of lemon. Serve the artichokes as a vegetarian dish or as a garnish for lamb.
