Curried Potato Chowder

== Ingredients ==
* olive oil cooking spray
* 2 large onions, about 1 lb thinly sliced
* 1 clove garlic, minced
* ⅛ tsp sugar
* 3 cup beef stock
* 2 large russet potatoes, about 2 lbs, peeled and diced
* ¼ cup dry white wine
* 1 tbsp dry curry powder
* 1 tbsp dry English mustard
* 1 cup plain non-fat yogurt
* grated lemon zest of garnish
* thin cucumber slices for garnish
=== Corn chowder variation ===
* ½ cup corn kernels, fresh or deforsted
* 1 tbsp turkey bacon, chopped cooked
== Directions ==
# In a large nonstick covered skillet that has been lightly sprayed with cooking spray, cook onions and garlic over low heat until onions wilt, about 15 minutes.
# Stir frequently.
# Uncover, stir in sugar, and continue to cook, stirring often, until onions begin to brown.
# Meanwhile, in a large saucepan bring stock to a boil.
# Add potatoes, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes.
# Add onions.
# Add wine to skillet; stir to loosen any browned bits.
# Add wine mixture to potato mixture.
# Return to soup to a simmer.
# Cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, until potatoes begin to fall apart and soup thickens.
# Stir in curry powder and dry mustard.
# Remove soup from stove; stir in yogurt.
# Return soup to stove; heat through.
# Do not allow to boil.
# Ladle into hot soup plates; with grated lemon zest and cucumber slices (I would add instant potatoes to make thicker potato soup). 
=== Corn chowder variation ===
# Omit curry powder, dry mustard, and plain nonfat yogurt.
# Chop onion and potatoes into small dice.
# Cook as directed until potatoes are just tender.
# Add corn just before serving.
# Garnish with each serving with chopped turkey bacon.
