Ingredients:
1/2 cup semolina
4 cups milk
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
A pinch of salt
Ground cinnamon or nutmeg, for garnish (optional)
Fresh berries or fruit compote for serving (optional)
Directions:
Heat the Milk: In a medium saucepan, bring the milk to a simmer over medium heat. Watch carefully to ensure it doesn’t boil over.
Add Semolina: Slowly whisk in the semolina, ensuring that no lumps form. Reduce the heat to low.
Cook the Mixture: Continue cooking the mixture, stirring constantly, until the semolina absorbs the milk and the pudding thickens, about 10-15 minutes.
Flavor the Pudding: Once the pudding has thickened, stir in the sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring continuously.
Serve: Remove the pudding from heat. Serve warm in individual bowls or let it cool and then refrigerate. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutagrautmeg, and add fresh berries or a fruit compote if desired.
