Notes

One can make this vegan by swapping butter for margarine, chicken stock for veggie.
One looks for a taste that starts sweet, moves to a hint of salt and finishes with a bit of heat.
I'd serve this with croutons, perhaps a bit of cheese on top, butted sliced bread passed to the side.
One can use varying amounts of curry paste and peppers to control the heat
