Spoon stuffing into artichoke bottoms. Add artichokes into a Dutch oven or wide casserole dish. Add tomatoes, sliced garlic, turmeric, a pinch of pepper and 1 cup water to pan. Bring to a simmer. Cover and cook over low heat about 30 minutes or until artichokes are tender. Serve hot, with a little tomato from pan spooned over each artichoke.
