Sort through the beans, rinse them and place in a large pot with just enough water to cover them. Bring to boil, drain then fill again with water halfway up the side of pot.
Add in the onion, salami, optional smoked meat and vegeta. Bring to boil, reduce heat then simmer for about 2 hours or until beans are tender.
Check for seasoning, adding salt if needed. In a small pan place the oil and flour and cook, stirring, over medium heat until flour starts to cook then keep cooking for about 1 minute.
Add the garlic and paprika, mix through and stir for about 30 seconds then add to Grah. Cook Grah for another 10 minutes. Serve in bowls with bread.
