1. Toast the spices over medium heat in the bottom of a dry 4-6 quart Dutch oven. Shake the pan continually for a few minutes. Once the spices become fragrant, mix in the olive oil, salt, and pepper.

2. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger to the spice mixture and cook for a few minutes, until the onions soften.

3. Mix in the zucchini, eggplant, apricots, and olives. Pour in orange juice and toss mixture well. Gently fold in the salmon chunks and parsley and top tagine with orange slices.

4. Cover and allow tagine to simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, until salmon is still tender and pink inside. Serve over cous cous, spooning plenty of the sauce on top.
