Store the starch pulp and omelet in the refrigerator until needed.
Cut carrots, tomatoes, radishes and bell peppers into thin strips. In a frying pan, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and put the vegetables in it in turn. To these ingredients, add tomato paste, dry coriander and crushed garlic. This mixture should be fried for about a minute, and then pour in 300 milliliters of water in a thin stream. Next, the vegetables need to be stewed for about 5-7 minutes. After that, add a beaten egg to the pan. The resulting sauce must be salted, mixed thoroughly and removed from the stove.
