For the cous cous: Place the cous cous in a bowl with the salt, pepper, olive oil and saffron threads. Mix with a fork. Bring the water to the boil and pour on top of the cous cous. Cover the bowl with cling film and allow to cook for 10 minutes. When cooked, break the cous cous up with a fork and make sure you have no lumps. Add the spring onion and check the seasoning.
Heat a frying pan until hot and cook the salmon brochettes for a minute on each side. The salmon should be pink in the middle. Cook for longer if necessary.
