Preparation

1. Heat the oil in a heavy saucepan. Add the onion, ginger, apple, cumin, coriander, turmeric and curry powder and cook, stirring, about five minutes. Do not allow the onion to brown.
2. Add the tomatoes and water, bring to a simmer and cook until the apples and onions are very tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and puree the mixture in a food processor or blender, then force through a sieve to remove the tomato and apple skins and seeds. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve.
3. Stir the yogurt to smooth it, then stir it into the soup. Serve the soup garnished with a sprinking of mint.
