Semolina porridge

Semolina porridge is a very popular with children and often served at kindergartens in Russia.

It has custard-like texture and can be sweetened by berries or jam for the delight of the little ones.

It is cooked very quick, but there is a little trick – once the porridge starts boiling, you will need to constantly stir it to prevent burning or lumpiness. Good news that it will only take up to 3 minutes.

 

So if you can buy semolina groats from Russian shops or in your grocery store (dry good section) try out this quick recipe.

        This sounds like a rellay great recipe. I’ll just have to figure out what buckwheat is called in Swedish! =) It’s great to read about all the meals you try and make. I love the inspiration.

        Hi Dirga,
        Thank you very much, it’s a pleasure to hear! Google translate gave me “bovete” for buckwheat in Swedish, don’t know if it is correct :). Cheers and happy cooking!
