Notes

  1. If skin starts to form while the semolina pudding is simmering, simply skim it off.
  2. Let the semolina cool off slightly before pouring into serving glasses or jars.
  3. A great addition to this dessert is a fruit compote - for this recipe, I cooked down some frozen strawberries, with sugar, water, and a bit of cornstarch. The strawberry bits make a great contrast not only in colour but also in taste, to the soft pudding texture.
