3 Tbs curry powder

Combine squash and broth in heavy soup pot.

Turn heat off.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer squash to blender, reserving broth.
Process until smooth, about 20 seconds.
Stir pureed squash back into broth.
Add milk, lime juice, salt, and pepper.
In small sauce pan, melt butter over low heat.
Add water, flour and curry.
Stir until all are combined, making a thick paste.
