First of all prepare the couscous which is very simple. All you do is place it in a bowl, then heat up the wine till just at simmering point, whisk the saffron into it along with some salt and pepper, and pour the whole lot over the couscous grains. Then leave the couscous on one side until it has absorbed all the liquid. After this fluff it by making cutting movements across and through it with a knife.

Now take each salmon fillet, season with salt and pepper, and dip it first into beaten egg, then sit it on top of the couscous and using your hands, coat it on all sides, pressing the couscous evenly all round. It works in just the same way as breadcrumbs. Now place the coated fillets on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake in a pre-heated 375F oven for 15-20 mins. or a little longer if the fish is very thick.
