Equipment
A pressure cooker will cut the cooking time of this soup, so is recommended if you like to cook soups. Otherwise, use a normal pot, but add 5 mins to step 1 cooking carrots etc and 20 mins to potato stage cooking time.
Here is a link to the pressure cooker I use affiliate link to purchase the equipment.
