Stir in tomato paste, paprika and cayenne, then a cup of broth of water. Turn heat to simmer, stirring well #3 Cook for about 10 more minutes, until both meat and potatoes are tender and the sauce just coats them. Stir in scallions and cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use #4 Divide chilled dough into 1oz pieces and form into 2 inch diameter balls. Roll each piece into a 4 ½ circle. Lay dough circles on a baking sheet lightly dusted with flour. Moisten outer edge of each round with water.
