Step #6 Add the anchovy fillets & sear for another min.
Step #7 Add all the vegetables, curry powder & cayenne pepper powder & cook for about 3 mins.

Step #27 Divide the soup into bowls & serve this with Aioli & toasted french bread on the side.
Step #28 NOTE on "small whole fish": I use herrings.
Step #29 NOTE on fish tails: I don't remove the tail fin & use these pieces for decoration.
