Method

Melt butter in a large saucepan, add vegetables and cook for 4-5 minutes or just until soft. Add potatoes and clams. Add curry paste and stir to combine. Add milk, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until potatoes are just soft. In a separate pan, melt butter for roux, add flour, and mix until combined. Cook until roux produces the aroma of bread, 3-4 minutes, then let cool. Add soup and cook until desired consistency is reached. Add cilantro and serve.
