Heat the oil in a large saucepan and gently fry the onion until translucent, but do not brown. Stir in the curry powder and cornstarch and cook for two minutes. Stir in the apples, add the stock, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil, stirring until thickened. Add golden raisins, lemon zest, lemon juice and seasonings. Simmer for 20 minutes. Cool slightly; using a food processor blend until smooth and transfer to saucepan. In a small bowl blend the egg yolks with the heavy cream, then stir the cream/egg mixture into the apple mixture. Serve the soup hot, gently heated so that it does not come to a boil or chill in the refrigerator and serve cold. Garnish with the dessert apple and the watercress sprigs or mint leaves.
