I reverse-engineered the kasha that the babushkas at the local Polish market lunch counter make. I don't have a video but I can write the recipe out.

Ingredients:
1 cup toasted buckwheat, washed
1 small/medium cooking onion, diced
1-2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
1/4 of a jumbo carrot (or equivalent)
peas (I usually use frozen)
butter
salt+pepper

Instructions:
in a pot, boil 1 3/4 cups of water, add buckwheat and a bit of salt, simmer for 18-20 minutes.
in a pan, melt butter, add onion, carrot, and garlic, cook on medium heat, turn it down if it starts to brown too much.
when they're mostly cooked, add the peas and salt+pepper.
after the buckwheat is done, add it to the vegetables and mix it together.
taste it and add more salt+pepper or butter if you want.

Mordovian East Slavic selyanka - soup from pork giblets.
First, boil a small piece of pork, carrots and onions, and then chop the lungs, heart, kidneys and liver. At the very end, add the potatoes. It turns out to be a very addictive soup.
Firstly, this soup can be eaten in unlimited quantities, and secondly, a huge amount of alcohol can be drunk with it (the soup greatly weakens the toxic effect of С2H5OH).
