Steps:

• In a large saucepan, saute the mushrooms and onion in butter until tender. Stir in the flour and curry powder until blended. Gradually add the broth.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over a medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the onion, garlic and ginger and stir. Add the curry powder, salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until the vegetables begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes.

• Add the onions, leeks, carrot, and apple and sauté over medium-low heat until the onions are translucent, about 15 minutes. Add the curry, spice sachet, and the remaining vegetables. Pour in the water and bring to a gentle simmer, for about 45 minutes, until the vegetables are very soft.
• Remove the spice sachet and puree the vegetable mixture in a food mill. To give the soup a silky-smooth texture, pass through a fine-mesh strainer. Transfer the soup to a saucepan. Add the cream and taste and adjust the seasoning. Heat gently just until warmed through.
