Heat a large soup pan over medium-high heat. Add oil, swirl to coat. Add and sauté onion for 4 minutes. Add potatoes and ginger, cook 2 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes. Place half the mixture in a well vented blender, cover with a towel and blend until smooth. Place in a bowl and repeat with the remaining mixture. If desired, top with pumpkin seeds or chopped peanuts (sunflower seed kernels are really good too !) chopped green onions.
