Pre-cook the pasta in salted water. It should still be relatively firm, then pour it into a casserole dish. Chop the vegetables and smoked tofu into small pieces. Heat a little oil in a saucepan, add the onions, then the smoked tofu, then the leeks, tomatoes, salt, pepper, and paprika. Deglaze with 200 ml cream and 200 ml water. Add the vegetable stock and a little oregano, season to taste, and thicken with a sauce thickener.
