Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 medium (chopped) onion
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 4 medium (peeled, cored, and diced) apples
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) fresh chives
Instructions
In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter until it begins to bubble.
Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it becomes translucent.
Stir in the curry powder and cook for another 1 minute to release the aroma of the spices.
Add the diced apples to the pot and stir to coat them in the spices and butter.
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the apples are soft and tender.
Remove the pot from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Using an immersion blender (or a regular blender in batches), puree the soup until it is silky smooth.
Stir in the heavy cream, then season with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Transfer the soup to a large bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until fully chilled.
Before serving, give the soup a good stir and divide it into bowls.
Garnish each serving with freshly chopped chives and enjoy!
