Method

1. Prepare: choose a 1–1.5 L pot, rinse it, and place over medium heat. Measure the milk², and the sugar and salt. Prepare the butter³ to add to the porridge.

2. Warm the milk² with sugar and salt over medium heat until boiling, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Bring to a boil in 4–5 minutes.

3. Reduce heat to low and pour in the semolina¹ in a thin stream, continuously stirring with a whisk or fork to prevent lumps. Simmer on low heat for about 2–3 minutes after you start pouring, continuing to stir.

4. Continue cooking on low heat for 2–3 minutes until the mass thickens and becomes smooth and uniform. At the end, add a pinch of salt to taste and stir.

5. Add the butter³ and stir on low heat until completely melted and evenly distributed, about 1–2 minutes. The butter will add gloss and make the texture more tender.

6. Remove from heat, let the porridge stand under a lid for 1–2 minutes to thicken further and become smooth.

7. To serve: divide among plates, top with a small piece of butter³. Serve hot. If desired, you may sweeten to taste.
