Instructions

  1. Bring the milk to a simmer in a saucepan with the salt and sugar.
  2. Pour in the semolina in a steady stream while whisking to prevent lumps.
  3. Lower the heat and let it thicken for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring, until it has a smooth, creamy consistency.
  4. Remove from the heat, add the butter and vanilla, then stir until melted.
  5. Divide into bowls, sprinkle with cinnamon and add the berries if you like. Serve warm.

Variations and tips

Caramel version. Dry-caramelize 2 tablespoons of sugar and stir it into the warm bubert for a deeper flavor.
