Directions:
1. Heat olive oil over high heat in stockpot, then add garlic. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to ensure the garlic does not burn. Add diced carrots, onions, celery and lemongrass. Turn the heat down to medium. Cook the vegetables, stirring as you go, for 5-6 minutes, or until they are soft.
2. Add the apple and cook for 1 minute. Add the curry powder and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring to ensure the curry powder does not burn. Deglaze pot with wine.
3. Simmer for 7 minutes. Pour coconut milk in stockpot, then add enough cold water to cover the vegetables by 2 inches. Simmer on low heat for 15 minutes. Remove pot from heat and add ginger.
4. Puree soup in a blender and strain it through a fine-mesh sieve. Pour the soup back into the pot. Add cream. Bring soup to a boil. Season with salt, pepper, lemon juice and sugar. Whisk in the butter. Serve immediately.
