You make semolina porridge from milk and semolina in just a few minutes. You bring the milk almost to a boil, salt it, and whisk in the semolina in a thin stream so no lumps form. You simmer it for a few minutes until it thickens into a smooth, creamy consistency, then sweeten it. You stir a knob of butter into the hot mixture, sprinkle it with cinnamon, and serve it warm. It makes a quick sweet breakfast or snack.

Step by step process

Preparation

1
Measure out the milk and semolina for the semolina porridge. Prepare a heavy-bottomed saucepan, a whisk, and a measuring cup.
2
Weigh the butter and have ground cinnamon ready for flavoring. If using, add vanilla sugar to taste.

Cooking

3
Pour the milk into the saucepan, add a pinch of salt, and gently heat over medium heat almost to boiling, stirring occasionally to prevent the milk from scorching.
4
Once the milk starts to gently simmer, gradually whisk in the semolina in a thin stream, continuing to whisk steadily to avoid lumps.
5
Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for about 3-5 minutes until the mixture nicely thickens. You'll recognize it by its smooth and stretchy consistency.
6
Adjust the sweetness by adding sugar and, if desired, vanilla sugar. Mix well and cook briefly to dissolve all the sugar.

Serving

7
Divide the hot porridge into bowls. Place a piece of butter on top and let it melt on the hot mixture.
8
Sprinkle with ground cinnamon and add extra sugar to taste if desired. Serve best while still warm.
