Making this soup really isn't very difficult and if you don't own a gadget like the Cuisinart soup maker you will need a couple of pots and pans and be prepared for some washing up.
Firstly, boil the chicken in a pan of water until the meat comes off the bone and then either shred it or chop it the size you want.
Strain the water you cooked the chicken in to remove and fatty bits and keep it to one side.
Get rid of the fatty bits.
Add everything except the potatoes to the water, cover and let it simmer on a low heat for a couple of hours.
