Ingredients
- 6 tbsp fine semolina
- 6 cups milk (or use almond milk or rice milk as alternatives)
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 1/4 tsp mixed spice or cinnamon (optional)
- Handful of raisins or sultanas (optional)
- 1/8 cup sugar (or use honey or pure maple syrup)
- Any choice of raw or cooked fruit and nuts to serve
Instructions
- In a medium to large pot, mix semolina with a few tablespoons of the milk, then mix in vanilla and mixed spice and the rest of the milk. Add sultanas (or raisins) if using.
- Bring to the boil over medium heat and stir frequently to avoid lumps forming. Reduce the heat to medium low and maintain a gentle simmer. It will take about 10 minutes to thicken to the consistency of a smooth, not overly thick porridge.
- Sweeten with sugar (honey or maple syrup) to taste.
- Serve with seasonal raw or cooked fruit and nuts.
