4. Then add chicken broth (or vegetable bouillon if Vegetarian), potato (peeled or not), ginger, salt and pepper.

Lovely, healthy soup that we realyy enjoyed. I left my ginger in very samall slices and diced the veggies quite fine too so the cooking time was only about 30 minutes and just a few more to reheat if you made the soup ahead of time..
