Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Milk

Begin by *bringing the milk to a boil* in a saucepan. Once it reaches a boil, immediately reduce the heat to the lowest setting. If foam forms on the surface, remove it carefully. Add a pinch of *salt* to enhance the flavor.

At this stage, you can also add a sweetener or sugar if you prefer a sweeter taste.

Step 2

Mix in the Semolina

Gradually add the *semolina* while continuously stirring the mixture. This will help prevent lumps from forming. Cook for about *3 minutes*, stirring occasionally to ensure it cooks evenly over the low heat.

Step 3

Let it Rest

After the semolina has cooked, turn off the heat, cover the saucepan, and let the porridge *sit for 5 minutes*. This resting period allows the flavors to meld and the texture to set perfectly.

Step 4

Serve and Enjoy

When ready to serve, you can add delightful toppings such as *honey*, *jam*, or fresh *berries* to enhance your porridge. Feel free to sprinkle some *nuts* on top for added crunch and flavor.

Enjoy your *delicious semolina porridge* as a nutritious breakfast option!

Servings

Ready to serve your delicious semolina porridge? Here are some **fun ways to enjoy it**:

**Topping Dreams** 🌟: Drizzle some honey or maple syrup for sweetness that elevates your porridge to new heights! Add a dollop of jam or fresh fruits like strawberries or blueberries for a burst of flavor 🍓.

**Nutty Delight** 🥜: Sprinkle toasted nuts or seeds on top to give a delightful crunch and extra nutrition. Consider almonds, walnuts, or pumpkin seeds for texture and taste.

**Variation Wonderland** 🎨: Feeling adventurous? Top it with a dollop of yogurt and a sprinkle of cinnamon for a twist that blends creamy and spicy notes seamlessly. Your breakfast won't just be a meal; it will be a sweet experience!

Equipment

Saucepan

A medium to large saucepan is ideal for preparing your porridge. It distributes heat evenly, ensuring the milk and semolina cook gently without burning.

Whisk or Wooden Spoon

Use a whisk to mix the semolina into the milk smoothly, preventing clumps. A wooden spoon is great for stirring and keeping your porridge creamy.

Lid

A lid is essential for covering the saucepan while the porridge rests, helping it to thicken and develop a rich texture.

Variations

For those looking for **gluten-free** or **vegan** options, don't worry! We’ve got you covered:

Gluten-Free Twist 🌾: Substitute semolina with cornmeal or rice flour for a similar creamy texture that's entirely gluten-free. This swap doesn't compromise on taste but opens up your breakfast options!

Vegan Delight 🌱: Replace regular milk with almond, oat, or coconut milk. These plant-based choices give your porridge a unique flavor while being completely vegan-friendly and delicious.
