Place chicken in large pot with water, sherry, salt, curry, onion & celery. Bring to boil, cover tight & simmer 1 hour. Remove from heat. Drain chicken; strain & remove broth. Use broth for cooking liquid for rice (3 cups broth to 1 cup water) following package directions. Stir in additional onion & celery, cook as directed for firm rice. Discard chicken skins, remove meat from bone, cut in bite-size pieces. Wash & dry mushrooms. Slice all but 8 mushrooms & sauce in butter until golden. Drain & set aside. When rice is cooked, fluff with fork & allow to cool completely. Mix sour cream & soup. When rice is cool, add to chicken & mushrooms in large bowl. Gently mix, then fold in sour cream mixture. Spoon into 4-qt casserole & decorate top with reserved mushrooms. May be frozen until needed. Bake at 350 for 1 hour (15 min more if frozen). 10-12. MRS WILLIAM U.
