Ingredients

100 grams semolina
500 milliliters milk
250 milliliters water
30 grams sugar
0.5 teaspoons salt
15 grams butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the milk and water. Place it over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer.

Step 2

Once simmering, gradually whisk in the semolina, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue stirring to prevent the semolina from clumping.

Step 3

Add the sugar and salt to the mixture, and continue stirring regularly as it cooks.

Step 4

Allow the porridge to cook for about 10 to 12 minutes, stirring continuously, until it thickens to your desired consistency. For a thicker porridge, let it cook a couple of minutes longer.

Step 5

Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract for added flavor and creaminess.

Step 6

Ladle the porridge into bowls and serve warm. Consider topping with fruits, nuts, honey, or a sprinkle of cinnamon to enhance the flavor.
