1   small onion, very finely chopped (1/3 cup)  
1   small carrot, very finely chopped (1/3 cup)  
2 Tbs   Indian curry powder

1 In heavy frypan over medium heat, melt butter. Add onion and carrot; stir and sauté until limp. Add curry; stir until mixture is lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Stir in chicken broth. Heat to boiling; reduce heat and simmer until reduced by half. Cool and turn into blender container or bowl of food processor and process until smooth. Return to pan. Keep warm.
