Preparation
Step 1
Adjust the amount of sugar to taste. You can replace sugar with any heat-resistant sweetener. Use any fat content of milk. Large, grade A eggs are needed. If you have small eggs, you can use 3. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
Step 2
Separate one egg into yolk and white.
Step 3
In a bowl, beat the whole egg and the egg white from the second egg until smooth. Keep the remaining yolk for greasing the pudding before baking.
Step 4
In a bowl, mix semolina, sugar, and vanilla sugar.
Step 5
Pour milk into a saucepan and place on medium heat. While the milk is heating, gradually pour the semolina in while stirring constantly. If you add semolina to boiling milk, it can form lumps quickly. Stir and cook the semolina porridge over low heat until thickened, making sure it doesn’t burn at the bottom.
Step 6
Remove the cooked semolina porridge from the heat and let it cool a bit. Eggs can curdle if added to hot porridge.
Step 7
Pour the beaten eggs into the semolina porridge and stir well until smooth. If desired, you can blend the mixture with a blender or mixer to make it fluffy.
Step 8
Grease the baking dish with butter. Spread the semolina porridge evenly in the dish. Depending on the dish size, the pudding will be thicker or thinner. Brush the top of the pudding with the remaining yolk. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 30 minutes until golden brown. The time and temperature are approximate, as baking time will depend on the thickness of the mixture, the dish size, and your oven.
Step 9
Let the pudding cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for 4-8 hours.
Step 10
Slice the pudding into pieces, pour jelly over it, garnish with fresh fruit, and serve. Enjoy your meal!
