Entertaining tips:

  • Curry Carrot Soup Ia sweet and spicy, and if you don’t cook with curry powder on everyday basis, it’s exotic.
  • You can prepare the soup a day before the party and reheat it on the stove when ready to eat.
  • Add soup and a dollop of sour cream to each plate. There is something about that combination; sweet and spiry soup and cold scour cream.
