Original GF Paleo Vegetarian

This mild curry soup with rice gains new fans every time we feature it. In the past we've added coconut milk for creaminess, but this version uses half and half to achieve the same result. The last time we featured this meal was 2019.

Prep

Rice - (Skip if made ahead for Tuesday.) For white rice, rinse until clear. Fill a saucepan or Dutch oven (or rice cooker) with rice, water (use 2:1 ratio for water to rice), and some salt. Cover with lid and bring to a boil. Once water boils, stir, lower heat to a low-medium, and cover. Check white rice after ~20 min; brown at ~45 min. Rice is done when it's absorbed all the water. If it's not done, leave the cover on until all water has been absorbed. Take cover off to release steam and fluff with a wooden spoon after 5 minutes. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)
Onions / Carrots - Prep as directed and combine. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)
Make spice mix - Combine curry powder, garam masala, and turmeric. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)
