Blanch the tomatoes and peel off their skins. Mash them with a fork and add to the vegetables. Add one cup of water and simmer for another 15 minutes.

Remove the stems from the basil and chop it finely. Add it to the vegetables, then season with salt and pepper. If desired, add paprika. Cook for 10 minutes.
