A couple of weeks ago I attended an open house of a new cooking school in San Francisco. This recipe is adapted from one done in the demo kitchen by Chef David Groff who is an instructor at the school and former chef at the Zuni Cafe in San Francisco. I changed the recipe a bit. His called for sweating onions until soft. I elected to roast the onions with the carrots to add some additional carmelization. His recipe used heavy cream as the last additive. I chose to use coconut milk to infuse another flavor component. I also increased the amount of curry powder used. This is a rich and elegant soup that with some protein added (perhaps bay or sea scallops) would make a great first course for a dinner party. I served the soup with flatbread wraps of grilled chicken and Tandoori seasoning.
For a wine I chose Cline Vineyards 2009 Sonoma Coast Gewurztraminer slightly chilled. The wine has tones of lime and grapefruit which paired well with the coconut, lime and curry in the soup.
