Guryev porridge is a dish that was served to the table in the families of emperors. It is prepared from semolina with the addition of milk, cream, candied fruits, nuts or dried fruits. Nowadays, it is suitable for those who do not like ordinary semolina porridge.
To make porridge you will need:
- milk - 1 liter;
- semolina - 3/4 cup;
- salt - 1/4 tsp;
- sugar - 2 tbsp. l;
- walnuts - 1/2 cup;
- candied fruits - 1/2 cup;
- butter - 3 tbsp. l;
- vanillin - 1/4 tsp;
- eggs - 4 pcs.
First, cook the thick semolina porridge, for this we bring the milk to a boil and lightly add some salt. Mix semolina with sugar and pour a thin stream into boiling milk, stir without stopping so that lumps do not form. Cook the cereals until tender; this will take about five minutes.
While the porridge is cooling down, chop the walnuts and fry them in a dry frying pan, cut the candied fruits into small pieces. Put melted butter, vanillin, candied fruits and nuts into the chilled semolina porridge, mix.
At the eggs, carefully separate the whites from the yolks. Put the whites in the refrigerator to cool, and pour the yolks into a saucepan with porridge. Beat the cooled proteins into a strong foam and gently mix them into the porridge.
Portion forms (tins for muffins or cocotte makers are perfect) grease with vegetable or butter, put our porridge in them and lightly sprinkle with sugar. Preheat the oven to 180-190 degrees, place the molds in it and bake until the sugar is caramelized. We take it out of the oven, cool it a little and serve it to the table.
Candied fruits and nuts can be replaced with fresh or canned berries, dried fruits, or syrup.
Such porridge will delight not only little sweet tooth, but also adult family members will try it with pleasure.
