5 slices bacon
1 med. onion, chopped
2 tsp. paprika
1 c. rice
4 med. potatoes
8 c. water

Cut bacon into small pieces and fry until crisp. Remove bacon from the grease. Put bacon in the soup pan. In the bacon fat lightly brown the onions and then add the paprika. Add rice and stir constantly just until the rice is warmed up. Put those ingredients in the soup pot and add everything else and cook slowly, stirring often until rice and potatoes are cooked.
