Ingredients:
- 1 (very) large carrot, diced
- 1 large zucchini (courgette), or 2 smaller ones
- 1½ liter broth from cubes
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 onions, minced

- 500 grams peeled tomatoes, diced
- 3 medium size potatoes, diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 teaspoon paprika powder
- salt and freshly ground pepper
