Toss the shallots with 2 tablespoons olive oil, season lightly with salt and pepper. Put shallots in a glass roasting dish and cook for 10 minutes.

Remove artichokes and shallots from the oven and allow to cool.

Whisk together remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar and Dijon mustard. Roughly chop the olives.
