Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Semolina
- 500 milliliters Milk
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 20 grams Unsalted butter
- 4 whole (medium-sized) Plums
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cardamom
- 2 tablespoons Fresh orange juice
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Halve the plums and remove the pits. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground cardamom, orange juice, and water. Stir until the mixture begins to simmer.
Add the halved plums to the saucepan, cut side down. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 8-10 minutes, occasionally basting the plums with the spiced syrup, until they are tender but still hold their shape. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a separate medium saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it begins to steam but does not boil.
Gradually sprinkle the semolina into the milk while whisking continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
Reduce the heat to low and cook the semolina mixture for 8-10 minutes, stirring constantly, until it thickens to a creamy consistency.
Stir in the granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and unsalted butter until fully incorporated. Remove from heat.
To serve, spoon the warm semolina pudding into bowls. Top with the spiced plums and drizzle some of the syrup from the saucepan over the top.
Optional: Garnish with a pinch of ground cinnamon or a dollop of whipped cream. Serve immediately.
