I'm not sure of the exact recipe my grandmother used to use, but this is an approximation of egg-drop soup, with the addition of green peas, which are totally alien to the original soup as made in Hungary.
Ingredients
yellow onion
1 clove garlic
5-6 eggs
3 tbsp flour
water
1 tbsp Hungarian paprika
Piros Arany
0.25 tsp black pepper
2 chicken bouillon coubes
salt
lemon juice or vinegar
green peas
vegetable oil
Preparation

Saute the chopped onions on a bit of oil. Add the minced garlic for 30 seconds. Add the flour to prepare a roux. Add the paprika for 20 seconds when the flour smells like baked bread.

Add the spices to taste and stir. Add cold water stirring constantly.

Add in the green peas and whip up the eggs.

Bring to a boil and pour in the beaten eggs, mixing the soup constantly. Add the lemon juice/vinegar to taste and boil for 30-60 seconds.
This soup approved by the Soup Master General.
