Stoke had only won two games in their last 12 before Tuesday’s clash and their hopes of improving on that were dashed early by an 18th minute Sadio Mane strike and a brace from the Egypt star.
Mane was dropped to the bench for the 1-1 draw with Chelsea last time out and played only the final few seconds.
But he proved to Jurgen Klopp that he is an undroppable talent by firing home on 18 minutes and a perfect cross for Salah - a 67th minute sub - to convert with 13 minutes remaining.
The home side did show some fight in the second half and Wales midfielder Joe Allen had a decent chance on 69 minutes that he should have finished, after a headed pass from Peter Crouch.
And Salah completed the rout with seven minutes remaining to take his Prem goals tally to 12.
