Borscht is a Ukrainian soup made from chopped beets, cabbage, potatoes, and other vegetables, and is a symbol of Ukrainian cuisine and culture. As a symbol of culture, borscht is not just a dish, but part of Ukrainian traditions, a symbol of abundance and hospitality, said Iva Repnytska. It has dozens of variations, including the most popular red borscht, green, and cold versions. In 2022, the culture of Ukrainian borscht was inscribed on UNESCO's List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Need of Urgent Safeguarding.For more Shine Radio recipes go to: shineradio.ukSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nadia Arab, from Portsmouth, Hampshire talks to Noni Need about how family set up a cookery school in Buckland, Portsmouth in 1984, created the Indian Cookery Made Easy cookbook which was available to students and in WH Smith.
Nadia’s mother, Khalida misplaced her copy and the book was lost for decades until Nadia happened to discover an original copy.
It is a recipe book that celebrates the fusion of flavours from India and Pakistan.
Nadia worked with her mother to take the classic recipes and recreate the cookbook, which is now available in bookstores including Waterstones and Amazon.
Together with the new book, Nadia and her family have brought the recipes back to life and into the community and installed clean water pumps for those in need in India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka with the proceeds.
Recipes from the book are now being used in several city pubs and restaurants, including the Dolphin and Shepherd's Crook. It is also part of the curriculum in Food Tech classes at Purbrook Park School.
Nadia is hoping that the event will raise enough money to fund 10 water pumps, which cost £150 each.
