Heat a stockpot with a medium heat and add in the olive oil.

After a couple of minutes, add in the sliced garlic and mix continuously; after 30 seconds, add in the sliced potatoes and mix continuously.

Once the potatoes are lightly sautéed, about 5 minutes, add in the paprika and season with salt & pepper; quickly mix together, then add in the broth and bay leaf, and raise to a high heat, gently mix together; when it comes to a boil, place a lid on the pan and lower to a low heat.

In the meantime, crack the eggs into a bowl, add in the chopped parsley, and season with salt & pepper; whisk together.

After simmering the potatoes for 10 to 15 minutes and they are just cooked through (you can always pierce them with a toothpick to ensure they are done), grab some of the simmering broth, about a ¼ cup (60 ml), and whisk into the whisked eggs.

Slowly add the tempered whisked eggs into the soup while mixing continuously; then place the lid back on the pan and turn off the heat, let it sit for 2 to 3 minutes.

Transfer the soup into shallow bowls and garnish with chopped parsley, enjoy!
