Steps:

• Place all ingredients (except milk, curry powder and yogurt) in a large soup pot. Cook 20-25 minutes until vegetables are tender.
• Puree vegetables and broth, in batches, in a blender. (Leave some chunks in one batch).
• Return to pan and add milk and curry powder. Simmer until heated through.
• Ladle into six bowls and top each with a tablespoon of yogurt for garnish.

Steps:

• Cut the onion, carrot, celeriac, potato, fennel, turnip, and artichokes into medium to large chunks. Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot. Add the onion and cook until softened but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add the carrot, and cook for 5 minutes, and then add the remaining vegetables at 5 minute intervals, adjusting the heat as necessary so the vegetables don't brown. When all the vegetables are soft, add the chicken stock. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the soup has come together; it should have a thick consistency. Garnish each bowl with the chile powder and more olive oil.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large stockpot over medium heat; cook and stir the onion, leeks, garlic, and celery in the melted butter until tender, about 10 minutes.
• Pour 4 cups vegetable stock into the stockpot; add the potatoes. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook the mixture at a simmer 20 minutes.
• Divide the stock mixture into 3 batches with equal amounts of liquid and vegetables; set aside to cool for 30 minutes.
• Pour 1 batch of the stock mixture into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway. Hold the blender lid firmly in place and carefully start the blender; use a few quick pulses to get the mixture moving before leaving it on to puree. Repeat process with second batch. Return the pureed batches to the stockpot.
• Divide third batch into two equal batches. Puree only one of the two batches before returning both to the stockpot.
• Bring 1 cup vegetable stock to a simmer in a small pot over medium-low heat. Cook the carrots in the simmering stock until soft, 5 to 7 minutes; add to the puree in the stockpot.
• Stir the green onion and heavy cream through the puree; continue cooking another 5 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper; top with Cheddar cheese to serve.
