Serving Size : 6

1 Tablespoon unsalted butter

1 cup onion -- chopped

2 cloves garlic -- chopped

1 large potato -- peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes

3 Tablespoons curry powder

2 cups chicken broth

1 cup water

1 bunch broccoli -- cut into florets; stems cut in 1/2

inch slices
freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1 cup milk

1. In a large saucepan, melt the butter. Add the onions and

garlic and sauté' until the onions are translucent.

2. Add the curry and diced potatoes. The edge of the potato

pieces will be firm in about 2-3 minutes. Add the broth and

water to the pan. Bring the soup to a boil.

3. Add the broccoli. When the mixture returns to a boil,

reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until the

vegetables are tender.

4. Puree the soup in batches in a blender or food processor.

Return the puree to the pan, stir in the milk, and taste for

seasoning. Warm the soup over low heat. Do not boil to avoid

curdling the milk.
