- 1 cup tomato puree
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 celery stick with leaves, chopped

Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion mixture and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Add the paprika and mix to combine. Then, add the potatoes and fill the pot with filtered water to completely submerge the potatoes. Bring to a boil and add spices and parsley.

In a plate, beat the egg with ½ teaspoon of salt. Gradually add the flour while constantly stirring so that no lumps form. Continue adding flour until you have a thick, but soft consistency.
