Steps:
- Lamb and artichokes:
- Preheat oven to 325°. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Generously season lamb on all sides with salt and pepper and cook, turning often, until well browned, 12-15 minutes. Transfer lamb and oil to a roasting pan.
- Carefully add wine to skillet, scraping up browned bits. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by one-third, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, crushing with your hands, garlic, red pepper flakes, and 2 cups water and pour into roasting pan. Squeeze lemons over lamb; add to pan. Roast 3 hours.
- Meanwhile, remove tough dark outer leaves from artichokes. Using a serrated knife, trim 1" from top. Trim stems and remove tough outer layer with a vegetable peeler. Halve artichokes lengthwise. Toss to coat with pan juices and tuck under and around lamb. Roast, turning artichokes occasionally, until artichokes are tender and meat is falling off the bone, 1 1/2-2 hours. (Remove artichokes if they become too soft before meat is done.)
- Anchovy-herb oil and assembly:
- Pulse oil, anchovies, garlic, parsley, mint, and red pepper flakes in a food processor until smooth; season with salt.
- When done, place lamb in a large bowl and transfer artichokes, lemons, and garlic with a slotted spoon to bowl. Pour anchovy-herb oil over; tent with foil. Transfer pan juices to a glass measuring cup. Let sit a few minutes, then spoon off fat from surface. Serve lamb with artichoke mixture and pan juices.

Steps:
- First make the dough. In a large bowl, mix the flour, yeast, sugar, olive oil, a pinch of salt and 300ml warm water. Bring together with your hands or in a tabletop mixer, then knead for 10 mins by hand or 5 mins in a mixer, until soft and elastic. Put the dough in a clean, oiled bowl, cover with a sheet of oiled cling film and leave to rise for 2 hrs or until doubled in size. You can also pop the dough in the fridge and leave to rise overnight. (Take out of the fridge and leave for 1-2 hrs to bring back to room temperature to use.)
- For the topping. Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add onion and cook for a few mins until soft. Add garlic and cook for 1 min more. Add the lamb, increase the heat and fry until starting to brown, about 8 mins. Sprinkle in spices and stir for 1 min, then add purée, tomatoes, pomegranate molasses and seasoning, along with 50ml water. Simmer for 10 mins, stirring now and then - the mince should be sticky rather than saucy. Leave to cool.
- Dust 2 large baking sheets and the work surface with semolina. Knock any air bubbles out of the dough, then tip onto work surface and divide into 4. Working with 1 piece at a time - keeping remaining dough covered with the oiled cling film - roll into a thin oval shape, roughly 30cm long. Place the rolled dough on baking sheets. Divide mince mixture between the 4 pides, leaving a 1cm border around the edges. Roll the edges over the filling and pinch the ends together to form a pointy boat shape. Cover with the oiled cling film and leave to prove for 20 mins.
- Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Uncover pides and brush the edges with a little oil. Sprinkle the feta, sesame seeds and a good pinch of sumac over each pide and bake for 15 mins until puffed up and golden. Serve with salad and pickled Turkish chillies, if you like.

Steps:
- Mix garlic, all but 1 tablespoon mint, lemon juice and zest, cumin, pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon salt in 2-quart bowl. Add lamb, mix well, cover and marinate 2 hours at room temperature. Place raisins and sherry in small bowl, and set aside.
- When lamb is marinated, trim artichokes, cutting stems flush with bottoms, removing outer leaves, and slicing off top 1/2 inch. Quarter artichokes, place in bowl, and cover with water.
- Lightly toast pine nuts in 12-inch skillet. Remove. Add 2 tablespoons oil, and brown lamb over high heat in two shifts to avoid crowding. Remove lamb from pan, and lower heat to medium. Add remaining oil and onion, and sauté until translucent. Drain artichokes, and add, with raisins, sherry, balsamic vinegar and chickpeas. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to tagine. Place lamb on top. If you are not using a tagine, add lamb to skillet. Add stock.
- Cover tagine or skillet, and cook over low heat until lamb is tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Baste meat with pan juices. If using a tagine, scatter reserved mint and pine nuts on top, and serve. Otherwise, transfer to serving dish, garnish and serve.
