Try our curried celery and potato soup—an interesting take on regular celery and potato soup!
My image shows the soup un-blended. If you like your soup chunky, then, by all means, don't blend it!
If
you like a smooth soup, use your blender. If you're blending the soup
when it's hot, allow the hot air to escape from the little hole
in the lid so the heat can escape - just keep a cloth nearby to catch spills!
To give the soup a 'thicker gravy-like base,' just blend a small portion of the soup when it's cooked and then add that back to the pan and give it a good quick stir.
Curry is a spice blend that originated in India. Curry powder is typically made from a combination of turmeric, coriander, cumin, and chili powder.
The flavor of curry can be mild, medium, or hot.
There are many different types of curry, including vindaloo, korma, madras, and massaman. Vindaloo is a spicy curry that originates from Goa, while korma is a milder curry that is often made with yogurt or cream.
Madras is a hot curry that originates from Tamil Nadu, while Massaman is a Thai curry that is made with coconut milk and peanuts.
I'm somewhere in the middle regarding enjoying the heat of curry. It's a really neat flavor and will definitely linger in the house - aroma-wise. Run your A/C or open the windows if you're not partial to having the smell of curry linger.
NOTE: This curried version of the soup recipe is from Nigel in London, UK (they love their curries in the UK!) and I decided right away to make the soup myself and feature it—it's so good!
Nigel says it's mainly based on the 'plain' celery and potato soup but with curry added for a very flavorful twist! Enjoy—and "thanks" Nigel!
Curry Adds Fantastic Flavor!
*IF you need to add salt, do so, BUT be careful NOT to over-salt as the bouillon has salt in it.

There are many different recipes for curry suitable for chicken, beef, lamb, or vegetable dishes. Additionally, curry can be served with rice, naan bread, or roti.
While on the subject of naan bread, check out Anita's Bread as she says it's close to naan bread!
Naan is a soft, tear-drop-shaped flatbread that plays a central role in Indian cuisine and complements many dishes. The charred, puffy texture makes it perfect for dipping and scooping.

Not only does curry look good AND taste good—it smells good too!
Yes, the flavor of curry will become more intense the longer it is cooked. The reason why is longer cooking allows the spices and herbs to release their essential oils and aromatics fully.
Additionally, the flavor of curry can be intensified by adding more spices.
