Steps:
- Tip the couscous into a large heatproof bowl and pour over 400ml boiling water. Cover with cling film and leave to stand for 8-10 mins while you cook the fish.
- Heat a large, non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Brush the salmon fillets with olive oil and fry for 5 mins on one side or until opaque halfway up the side of the fillet. Flip the fillets over carefully and cook for another 1-2 mins or until cooked through, then remove from the heat.
- Mix the tahini with the lemon juice and a splash of water to make a sauce.
- Drain any excess water from the couscous and tip into a bowl, adding the cucumber, pomegranate seeds and parsley. Serve the salmon on top of the couscous, with lemon wedges on the side and the tahini sauce poured over or served alongside.

HOMEMADE TAHINI
Making your own tahini, a staple in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, is so simple you'll find it hard to go back. You need only two ingredients and a handful of minutes to produce a fresh, nutty tahini that will enhance everything from hummus and baba ghanoush to salad dressings and even desserts. You can make tahini with various kinds of oil, such as grapeseed, sesame and canola. We use one of the more popular picks -- vegetable oil -- and add just enough to yield a smooth but not runny tahini.

Steps:
- Put the sesame seeds in a food processor and blend on high until the mixture turns crumbly, about 1 minute. Add the oil and blend on high, stopping every minute or so to scrape down the sides, until the mixture is completely smooth, 5 to 8 minutes. You might need to add another tablespoon of oil to reach the desired consistency. The tahini should be smooth and pourable. Store in a clean jar in the refrigerator for about a month and give it a good stir before using.
