We grew up eating this recipe and now it's a part of the home dessert. My mother used to make it at home and now I am making it for my kid. It's a simple and easy recipe that can be prepared in ½ liter milk just by using ½ cup of roasted semolina. Hardly take 15 minutes to get ready. You may have it hot and chilled as per your choice. When I was small, I used to have warm pudding but now love to eat a chilled bowl of semolina pudding.
You can make a variation in the pudding toppings as well. Here I used ground pistachios and almonds but you can also use desiccated coconut or just sprinkle cinnamon powder to serve.
