Cook the pasta in salted water according to the package instructions until al dente. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small pan. Stir in the paprika and tomato paste, paprika powder, and chili flakes, if desired, and keep warm. Drain the pasta through a sieve, return it to the pot, and mix well with the yogurt. Divide the pasta among plates, pour over the warm butter sauce, and serve hot. Tip: If you plan ahead and have time, you can let the yogurt sit longer to make it more flavorful.
