Season the meat with enough seasoning to ensure good flavor when everything comes together.

Add about 4 cups of water to the pot and let it cook for about 20 minutes on high heat.

Wash the onions, tomatoes, habanero peppers, dried shrimp, and ginger.

Blend some of the onions with the other ingredients until it looks like a puree, then add the rest of the onions and blend again.

After adding all the blended ingredients, taste the soup and add more seasoning if needed.

Allow the soup to cook for about 20 to 30 minutes.

If using fish, add it about 20 minutes before the soup is ready to prevent it from mashing into the soup.

Cook until the soup is as thick as desired, but avoid making it too thick.
