Steps:
- Bloom the saffron strands in 1/4 cup of boiling water. Set aside for about 10 minutes.
- Heat the Tablespoon of oil in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Add the garlic and onion and sweat until they're soft and translucent.
- Add the brown rice, the saffron water and the remaining 1 1/4 cup water. Bring to the boil and cover with a lid. Turn the heat down to simmer and leave covered and simmering for 20 minutes.
- While the rice is cooking, use a dry non stick frying pan to toast the spice mix. Heat the pan over a medium heat and add the spices. Toast for about 4 minutes, until all the spices are starting to colour and are very fragrant. Blend the spices to a powder either in a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle.
- Once the rice is cooked, mix through the spices and the dried fruit.
- Serve with pomegranate arils and micro greens.

Steps:
- Whisk 1/4 cup olive oil, garlic, turmeric, cumin seeds, salt, and pepper together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag or container. Add chicken, coat with the paste and seal bag or container. Marinate in the refrigerator, 4 hours to overnight.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove chicken from marinade, discarding marinade. Add chicken thighs skin-side down to stockpot and cook until browned, about 4 minutes. Flip chicken thighs and cook until browned on second side, about 3 minutes more.
- Lower heat to medium and add water to cover chicken halfway, cover stockpot, and cook for 20 minutes. Uncover stockpot, sprinkle saffron threads onto chicken, and top with preserved lemon slices. Replace cover and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and juices run clear, about 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Uncover stockpot and transfer chicken to a serving platter.
- Continue simmering liquid in stockpot until thickened to sauce consistency, 5 to 7 minutes. Spoon sauce over chicken; top with olives, artichokes, and parsley.

SAFFRON RICE PILAF
The color yellow symbolized joy for medieval Arabs, who were cultivating saffron in Spain by 960 c.e. Sephardic Jews were equally inspired by the coveted spice, and golden rice became a holiday and Sabbath tradition. This version, made with basmati rice, is punctuated by caramelized onion, currants, and fried almonds.
