Semolina porridge
A lovely breakfast made with semolina, well known and common across the Arab world. I serve it with cheese and pita bread.
Video in Spanish on my YouTube channel.
Ingredients
As I list them in the video description.
- 2 ½ cups water
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup semolina
- 50 g unsalted butter
- Cinnamon and pistachio to serve (optional)
How it's made, in short
- Use the same cup to measure the water, sugar and semolina.
- Heat the water with the sugar in a pot.
- In a skillet, melt half the butter and toast the semolina until it darkens.
- Add it to the boiling water and stir over low heat until it thickens; add the rest of the butter.
- Serve with cinnamon and, if you like, chopped pistachio.
