continue to cook, stirring often, until onions begin to brown.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan. bring stock to a boil. Add potatoes,
reduce heat to a simmer, and cook unitl potatoes are tender when
pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes. Add onions. Add wine to
skillet; stir to lossen any browned bits. Add wine mixture to potato
mixture. Return to soup to a simmer. Cook for another 5 to 10
minutes, until potatoes begin to fall apart and soup thickens. Stir
in curry powder and dry mustard. Remove soup from stove; stir in
yogurt. Return soup to stove; heat through. Do not allow to boil.
Ladle into hot soup plates; with grated lemon zest and cucumber

“Americans can eat garbage, provided you sprinkle it liberally with ketchup, mustard, chili sauce, tabasco sauce, cayenne pepper, or any other condiment which destroys the original flavor of the dish.”

~ Henry Miller, American writer (1891-1980)
