Instructions

Step 1: Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a wide pan over medium-low heat.

Step 2: Add 1 cup of semolina into the melted butter and stir continuously for 8 to 10 minutes until the grains turn a golden-brown color and release a nutty aroma.

Step 3: Pour 2 cups of milk and 1/2 cup of natural honey directly into the roasted semolina, stirring vigorously to prevent any lumps from forming.

Step 4: Reduce the heat to low and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly until the mixture absorbs all the liquid and thickens to a smooth consistency.

Step 5: Remove from heat, cover the pan with a lid, and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving warm.

Chef's Tip

Using natural honey instead of traditional sugar syrup imparts a rich, deep floral sweetness while keeping the texture wonderfully moist and velvety.

A modern, refined twist on a classic comforting dessert, substituting refined sugar with pure honey creates a delicately sweet semolina pudding that comes together in minutes.
