In a large stockpot, melt the butter and add the onions, carrots, and celery. Sweat the vegetables until tender. Dust the vegetables with the flour and lightly cook until light brown roux forms. Add the curry powder, mace, ginger, and cloves
Stir slowly while adding the stock. Bring to a low boil and cook for 10 minutes. Add the rice to the soup and stir occasionally, so the rice doesn't stick
