Sometimes the best ideas comes occasilnally while we are relaxing. For example Einstein had many ideas in shower. Small things frequently  turn to bigger ideas so I have my own sustainable practice to follow the life flow in order to see what`s new it brings. Several days I was thinking about global project with social inclusive and so it came .

When I`d finished several important things such as SD exam so had my quality time to relax discussing ideas with friends from all over the globe. My Fb friend from India had mentioned his wish…and the project started.

Anna: Do you know how to cook, Larry?

Larry Cooper: my mother taught me…yes…but I want to cook borscht!! I will try to cook borscht someday. With beetroot, cabbage, carrot and dill, beans and potatoes!

Anna: Borscht ? The red russian soup?

Larry: Yes, yes!

Anna: Wow! WOW!!!

I was wondering! My friend from India interested to cook Russian (Ukranian) dish calls "borsch" which my Grandma, Riva Chudnovsky, cooked so frequently! My god, I remembered how my grand ma did it, how my mom do it, I remembered even I am hungry and I haven`t eaten the borsch for ages!

Larry: it’s just the right time to have borscht now!!

Anna: i`ll run and check my fridge!..it seems some ingredients are available!

 I asked Larry to wait for 5 min, run to my refregerator and checked products. It was a miracle the beetroots was here, ready to use! Because beetroots is the most important thing to borsch, and a rare bird in my fridge. I was enlightened with the idea to cook borsch immedeately, using Instagram and Facebook to share images online!

On the first picture (above) you can see the beetroot and carrot, ready to be cleaned, and the pan with water and other products from the fridge. I`d published it and people started to comment: with cauliflower and Brussels sprouts it is not the RIGHT TRUE borsch, because it needs cabbage. But I had no cabbage at the moment! I was very lucky to have beetroot and one carrot for it!

My friend Maria Chudina asked me if the red product in the plate is meat.  She teased me because I am vegetarian so I was forced to make justification it was not meat, it was tomato slices I freezed.

I used the shredder to cut the betroot and carrot into small pieces. While the frozen cauliflower and Brussels sprouts boiled in the pan, I prepared beetroot and carrot to stew.

Here it is!

Put beetroot and carrot in a griddle with warm oil and stew it. Then put some spices and at the the last 5 min put tomatoes.

The most triumphal moment was I shown the image of spices I use.

Anna: beetroot is ready to fry it with some masala.

Larry: Masala ?? you use masala? very indian ...

Anna: kitchen king,  garam and several others

Larry: seriously!! Even we get kitchen king in India. MDH, oh my goodness!!

Yessss!!!! This is Indian masalas - tradition Indian spices. I use it everyday. At that moment new people come to my Facebook to participate the project which became much more global as we expected from the beginning!

Saneet Chakradeo: Try ‘Garam Masala’ instead of Sambar

Anna: Hi Saneet , thank you! I will put it! Just check how it`s hot!

I`ve already put Sambar, but I wanted to use the advice and so put Garam masala too. The soup became more global and more Indian because of hot spices inside!

 

More people from all over the world participated in the one single soup!

Raven Moondancer: Sounds interesting and yummy, Indian/Russian fusion food.

Maria Chudina: Borsgch.net

Tatyana Shurtz: What do you mean: we support it from India?

Anna Chudnovsky: Hi Tatyana , it started an hour ago when my FB friend from India told me he wanted to cook Russian borsch. Then I realized I didn`t eat it for ages, so I started to cook immedeately the light vegetarian version of it from food I have in my fridge right now. My Indian friends comment the process so the Borsch becomes international with Indian`s support

Tatyana Shurtz: Oh, I gotcha, THEY support it, ok. Cool idea..))

So spices were put to the stewed beetroots with carrots and tomatoes and stew a little bit more.

It took time to make pictures and run to the laptop to write the experience on Facebook so once it was risk to overcook the soup. I took the beetroot and Co and put it into the pan with boiled green soup ingredients. Everything becomes red which is the main feature of BORSCH, from my point of vegetarian view .

In the small jar at the centre top you can see some tomato sauce, it`s without any additional salt etc, just tomato to put it to the pan after stewed beetroot.

 I like some acidic taste so I added several lemon slices into the pan. At the jar on the right you can see laurel leaf to add it in the pan to enrich the soup. My grandma joked, the person who found a laurel leaf in his or her plate will receive a mail so I like it.

At the plate on the left you can see cut green herbs like parsley. It should be added at the end.

My best cook critic, Natalya Vilyaeva: Something to make the angels weep!

Anna Chudnovsky: Angels? It`s so small amount of the soup to invite all of them!  So tasty so hot because of the masalas, I will cry from happiness! 8-)))))

Natalya Heinze:  ??? ????? ? ?????!
Ilona Mikhailenko: ???????????  ???????, ????????? ?? ????! ??? ???????, ??????, ?????????. ??, ????,  ???????!!!))) ????? ??????????? ?????????? ?????????! ? ??????????!

...So the BORSCH was cooked. As unexpected experience: it was great! Many people participated the effort on facebook and Instagram, making comments. Started from India and Russia the soup became much more global than we even expected.
