  1. Chop the onion and saute it in the olive oil in a pot.

  2. Wash the zucchini and dice it without peeling. Add it to the pot once the onion turns pink.

  3. Sprinkle in the paprika. Add 1-1.5 tea glasses of hot water so it does not burn and cook until the zucchini is well sauteed.

  4. Add enough milk to cover the zucchini, bring it to a boil once or twice and take it off the heat. It should be a little thicker than soup, still eaten with a spoon.
