Description
A simple, comforting, and quick-to-make dessert or light meal, especially popular in winter. It's a creamy, warm milky porridge made with flour "crumbs" or small pasta, often flavoured with cinnamon.
Ingredients
- 1 litre (4 cups) Full cream milk
- 2.5ml (1/2 tsp) Salt
- 60ml (4 tbsp) Cake flour
- 60ml (4 tbsp) Butter, melted
- Sugar to taste
- Ground cinnamon for dusting
Instructions
- Bring the milk and salt to a gentle boil in a large saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
- While the milk is heating, rub the cake flour and melted butter together between your fingertips in a small bowl until coarse, crumbly "crumbs" form.
- Once the milk is boiling, slowly sprinkle the flour and butter crumbs into the milk, stirring continuously with a whisk or wooden spoon.
- Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer, stirring frequently, for 5-10 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened to a porridge-like consistency and the flour is cooked through.
- Serve hot in bowls. Sprinkle generously with sugar and ground cinnamon.
