Salad Shirazi
by
This elegant salad recipe from Greg Malouf could be served as a starter, accompaniment to a main - or even as a light lunch. Greg serves the restaurant version (it's originally from the Iranian city of Shiraz) with an array of edible organic flowers. You can do the same, but make sure you use organic, pesticide-free blooms, such as viola, pansies, dahlias and sweet pea flowers.
