3 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons curry powder

Step 1
Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic and curry powder and sauté until onion is translucent, about 6 minutes. Add 4 cups stock and bring to boil. Stir in rice and carrots. Reduce heat and simmer until rice is very tender, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.
Step 2
Puree half of soup in blender or processor with peanut butter. Return puree to saucepan. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.) Stir soup until heated through, thinning with more stock if desired; do not boil. Mix in sugar. Ladle soup into bowls. Sprinkle with green onions and cilantro.
