Etymology

Chorba, or shorba, is variously derived from the Arabic word shurbah[3][4] meaning 'gravy'[5] or from a Persian term شوربا from shor ("salty, brackish") and ba/ab, آب، ما ("water/stew")[6] or from a hypothetical cognate word common to Arabic and Persian.[7]

Chorba is also called shorba (Arabic: شوربة, Amharic: ሾርባ), sho'rva (Uzbek: шўрва), shorwa (Pashto: شوروا), chorba (Bulgarian: чорба), čorba (Serbo-Croatian), Shurbad (Somali) ciorbă (Romanian), shurpa (Russian: шурпа), shorpa (Uighur: شورپا, шорпа), çorba (Turkish), shorpo (Kyrgyz: шорпо) and sorpa (Kazakh: сорпа).^{[citation needed]} In the Indian subcontinent, the term shorba in Hindi (Hindi: शोरबा) simply means gravy. It is a Mughlai dish and it has vegetarian forms such as tomato shorba.

Types

Shorwa is a traditional Afghan dish which is a simple dish which is usually mixed with bread on the dastarkhān.[8] It is a long process and a pressure-cooker is usually used, as it reduces the process to 2 hours. The main ingredients for shorwa are potatoes, beans and meat.[9] It is commonly served with Afghan bread.[10]

Ciorbă, as called in Moldova and Romania, consists of various vegetables, meat and herbs. Borș is a sour soup that is used in the Moldova region.[11] It is also has beneficial health effects.[12] It is served hot to stimulate digestion and be effective against colds.[13] There are several types of this dish, such as ciorbă de perișoare, leek soup, Romanian borscht, and borș de burechiușe.
