Mix 1 tablespoon of flour with 0.5 liters of cold water to create a slurry.

Melt more clarified butter over medium heat and add the flour and water mixture while stirring constantly until it boils.

Add pepper, 1 tablespoon of tomato paste, salt, Vegeta, paprika powder, and 2 hot peppers to the mixture.

Finely chop fresh parsley and mint and add to the mixture.
