Lamb soup with potatoes and rice

Mutton gives the soup a special taste and aroma. Hearty, meaty. Very tasty. This soup in my family is called kharcho. But, judging by the records on the Internet, real kharcho is prepared only from beef, potatoes are not put, but crushed walnuts, plums, tkemali and pickled plums are added. I don't have any of this, but the taste of this soup is indistinguishable from the grub I've had in the Caucasus. Whole tomatoes give a special zest to this soup.
