This classic recipe for semolina pudding with berry sauce gets served as a dessert after dinner. It’s a simple pudding made of milk, semolina and sugar. Sometimes people add some lemon zest or some macaroons but traditionally you serve it with berry sauce. The sauce can either be warm or cold. Semolina pudding with berry sauce is still one of the most popular desserts from a typical Dutch dessert brand! In the Netherlands people there are typical pudding molds to make a variety of puddings but you can also use a regular bowl like I did. Enjoy your pudding!
