Add the onion and cook without colour, add the rice and cook for a few minutes then add the cut sausages.
Slowly add the stock a ladle at a time, stirring until all the liquid is absorbed before adding more. Add the liquid until the rice is just al dente then add the fresh salmon. Stir until the salmon and rice are cooked, add as much liquid as necessary.
