Semolina porridge with pumpkin

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to cook semolina porridge with pumpkin? Prepare the ingredients. If you cook it for a child, I recommend choosing orange pumpkin, sweet varieties. If your pumpkin is not very sweet, add more sugar or honey to taste. You can take any semolina. You can also use frozen pumpkin.

2. Step 2:

   

   Wash the pumpkin, peel it, remove the core with the seeds. Cut the pulp into small cubes (you can grate it, then the pumpkin will be almost invisible in the porridge, and the porridge will cook faster) and put it in a saucepan. Fill it with water so that it covers the pumpkin by a couple of centimeters. Put the pan on the fire. When the water boils, reduce the heat to medium and cook the pumpkin for about 15 minutes.

3. Step 3:

   

   Then pour the milk into the pan. Add sugar and salt to taste. Stir and cook for another 5 minutes from the moment of boiling.

5. Step 4:

   

   Start adding semolina to a saucepan with pumpkin. Pour the semolina out of the glass in a thin trickle, stirring constantly with the second hand so that the semolina does not gather into lumps and stick to the bottom. Cook the porridge for about 5-7 minutes, stirring. When the porridge starts to thicken, turn off the heat.

   Cover the saucepan with a lid, leave the porridge to stand under the lid for about 20 minutes.
