Mom always told stories of her childhood days and I recall one story where she talks about the "Old Russian" restaurant in Beijing - the borscht being her favourite dish.
The EDC has a TM Borscht recipe and I bought some beetroot and parsnips, but I have a feeling it's not so traditional so I searched for a few recipes:

I don't have all the beef bones etc, but I'm thinking I'll try my hand at it - instead of the Pumpkin & Parsnip soup plan for tonight.
I'll try to keep to the TM recipe this time and then explore the other options.
Look forward to hearing how you went with this one.......
