In the London leg of Come Dine With Me, Linda Shanson punctuated her bulging menu with these four fine salads
1. For the Balkan beetroot salad: Slice up the beetroots into a bowl. Mix one part of vinegar with 2 parts of olive oil in a small container. Add 1 teaspppn of mustard and 1 teaspoon of sugar and stir with pinch of salt.
2. Cover the beetroot with the sauce and stir in the caraway seeds. Cover and leave to absorb the flavour for at least 3 hours.
3. For the marinated orange salad: Grate carrots and put into a bowl and cover with the juice of the oranges.
4. Cover and leave overnight. Just before serving roast sunflower seeds lightly in a dry pan on the hob and add to the carrots.
5. For the couscous salad: Put couscous in a bowl and just cover it with boiling water and leave it for ten minutes to soak up the water.
6. Mix in all the other ingredients and adjust salt and lemon to your taste.
7. For the chicken salad: Mix the sesame oil, vinegar and teriyaki sauce in a cup. Mix all the other ingredients in a large bowl and then stir in the dressing.
