Good morning 🥰
I have a recipe I call “The Other English Breakfast”, because it was made by grandmother for us to eat before school, and to have as a cold snack when we got home before tea time (the main meal was eaten at school during lunch time, called ‘dinner’, back then 🙂).
Ingredients:
2C milk
1C water
1tsp butter
pinch salt
1tsp raw sugar
1/3C semolina
1/8C chia seeds
Method:
1. Put milk, water, salt, butter in saucepan, bring to simmer gently.
2. Turn down heat, whisk in semolina gradually, turn up heat to bring to simmer.
3. Simmer very gently while stirring frequently with whisk to prevent clumping or sticking to pan, for 7-10 mins.
4. Add chia seeds, continue to simmer very gently stirring frequently for another 6-8 minutes (depending on how firm/thick you like the mixture to be), then add sugar at the end.
5. Remove from heat, use heat proof spatula to pour some into a bowl, then pour the rest into a ceramic or glass container to cool.
6. Once cooled, cover and place in fridge for the next few days as a cold breakfast in summer, or chilled snack during the day.
7. Can also be reheated in microwave (covered), for a warm breakfast in winter.
8. Top hot or cold with a dollop of your favourite sweet or savoury yoghurt and enjoy!
