¼ teaspoon chili powder
¼ teaspoon salt
pinch white pepper

Combine all ground spices (coriander, cumin, garam masala, turmeric, chili powder, salt and pepper) in a small bowl and set aside.

Heat 2 tablespoons of chicken broth over medium heat in a dutch oven. Saute the onions in the broth and add a sprinkling of salt.

Place the chicken evenly over the onions and sprinkle with spice blend on top. Add garlic, curry leaves and a half cup of chicken broth.  Cover and cook for 5 minutes.

1 cup water
2 tsp + ¼ tsp salt

In a large pot, add the carrots,1 teaspoon salt and enough water to completely cover them. Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil. Boil for 20 minutes or until the carrots are very soft.

Drain the carrots, reserving the liquid.

Add the carrots to a large food processor with 1 cup of the reserved carrot water. Blend until smooth. You may have to do this in batches if your food processor is small.

Add in the apples, ginger, salt, pepper and chicken broth. Process until smooth. Drizzle in the olive oil and quickly pulse to combine.

Serve immediately topped with fresh cracked pepper and chopped apple.
