Ingredients
- 300 grams Lingonberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 liter Water
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Semolina flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
1. In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the lingonberries and water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the berries have softened and released their juice.
Step 2
2. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl, pressing the berries to extract as much juice as possible. Discard the solids and return the liquid to the saucepan.
Step 3
3. Stir the granulated sugar and salt into the lingonberry liquid. Adjust sweetness to your preference, if needed.
Step 4
4. Gradually whisk in the semolina flour, adding it in a thin, steady stream to avoid lumps. Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens, about 5–7 minutes.
Step 5
5. Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the porridge to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer it to a large mixing bowl.
Step 6
6. Using a handheld electric mixer or a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, whip the porridge on high speed for 5–10 minutes, or until it turns pale and fluffy.
Step 7
7. Serve the whipped lingonberry porridge chilled, either on its own or with a splash of milk or a dollop of cream.
