Something familiar, made a little different. Treat your family to a tasty semolina cake for breakfast. Fold in fruit, nuts, or candied peel and you can surprise them with a new version every day. Mannik is great warm or cold, with tea, coffee, or cocoa — whatever you're in the mood for!
Cooking method
-
Step 1:
Gather your ingredients.
-
Step 2:
Stir the semolina together with the kefir and sour cream and let it sit for an hour. This lets the semolina swell so the finished cake has no gritty bits.
-
Step 3:
Meanwhile, beat the eggs with 120 g of the sugar, the salt, baking powder, and vanilla sugar.
-
Step 4:
Gently fold the egg mixture into the semolina. The batter should be about the consistency of thick store-bought sour cream.
-
Step 5:
Line a skillet (I use a heavy-bottomed one) with parchment paper, pour in the batter, cover with a lid, and set it over the lowest heat on the stovetop.
-
Step 6:
Cook over the heat for 30 minutes, then turn off the burner and let the cake finish for another 15 minutes. The thing about cooking it in a skillet is that the top won't brown — but trust me, it's baked through and ready to eat.
-
Step 7:
Once the cake has cooled, carefully turn it out onto a plate and pour the glaze over the top. To make the glaze: boil 1 tablespoon of sugar (25 g), 2 tablespoons of milk, 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder, and 50 g of butter for 3-4 minutes, until the sugar has fully dissolved.
-
Step 8:
Enjoy!
- You can soak the semolina overnight and bake the cake in the morning.
