Step 1
Poach artichoke hearts gently in simmering water with half of the lemon juice for 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain and rinse under cold running water, then drain again.

Heat olive oil in a tagine or heavy pan over low heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, add potatoes, most of the herbs (reserving some to top), remaining lemon juice, and spices.
Step 3
Pour in the vegetable stock, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are almost tender.
Step 4
Stir in the artichoke hearts, preserved lemon, and peas. Cook uncovered for another 10 minutes.
Step 5
Season to taste with salt and pepper and sprinkle with remaining herbs.
Step 6
Serve with couscous or chunks of fresh bread.
