2 lb Crayfish; cleaned, shelled

1 Onions; chopped fine

2 Garlic cloves; chopped

1 Fennel sprig; (optional)

1 sm Pepper, hot; left whole

4 c Water

1 c Milk, coconut

2 Egg yolks

Salt; to taste Heat butter in heavy saucepan and add crayfish, onion and garlic. Saute over medium heat until the crayfish have changed color, about 5 minutes. Add the fennel, hot pepper and water. Cover and cook at a gentle simmer for 30 minutes. Remove and discard the fennel and the hot pepper. Remove the crayfish and pound in a mortar and push through a fine sieve or reduce to a puree in an electric blender with a little of the stock. Return the pureed crayfish to the saucepan, add the coconut milk and heat through. Beat the eggs yolks with a little of the soup and stir into the saucepan.
