Vanilla and Chocolate Semolina

Wow. Just wow. How did I managed without it for so long?!? Forgot all about this nom until recently, when I was watching my friend trying to feed her toddler with it, and to everyone’s delight, he was spitting it all over the house. And I couldn’t help but visualize shaking this little one, until he would realize how much he is missing out on.

Vanilla-Chocolate-Semolina

I know what some of you will think…semolina…the memories of that hated ‘treat’ from your school days causing you some nausea…But trust me, this one is just a delicious, creamy, light and soooooo satisfying, the trauma from eating it as a child will disappear quickly. I mean have you ever added chocolate into something and didn’t enjoy it? Yeah, I thought so…

I’ve always been a fan of semolina (even as a kiddo, comparing to my hate for porridge), and I just love how light, yet how creamy it gets, and comparing to porridge, it doesn’t make me feel as full. And the smell of it just takes me back to times when my food was cooked for me, and I was the center of attention (perks of being the youngest child in the family!).

Vanilla and Chocolate Semolina

This recipe should vanish your fears of semolina, if after trying it, you are still not a converter, then…well, what’s wrong with you?!? OkOk, just kidding, nothing wrong with you, but seriously, just give it a go, pretty please.

  • #Ad I've never been too keen on going out on Valentine's but this year, with @waitroseandpartners ยฃ20 dinner for two, I have even more reasons to stay in ๐Ÿ˜
There are meat, vegetarian and vegan options available, and you get to choose a starter (we went for mushroom arancini), a main (beetroot wellingtons), two sides (seasoned Charlotte potatoes and salad), dessert and bottle of wine or box of chocolates (wine for us ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿท). True feast for you and your love ๐Ÿ’•
How will you be spending #ValentinesDay?

  • #Ad Whoโ€™s getting excited for the upcoming Pancake Day? I know I am ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿฅž
This year, I will be treating myself and my family to these utterly delicious stacks filled with irresistible chocolate spreads and fresh berries. They were all gone in seconds, last time Iโ€™ve made them, which is always a good sign, right? ๐Ÿ˜‰
First one is filled with the Malteasers spread with crispy honeycombed pieces (Jonโ€™s favourite) and the second one is the Crispy M&M chocolate hazelnut flavoured spread with coloured crispy balls (my fav). Which one would you choose?

  • My day in a nutshell (so far): got woken up at 3 AM by wheelie bins and bottles happily dancing in the wind outside. Went to see the dentists for the third time this week. Came back, shoot a client campaign. Stubbed my toe. Tried to send the campaign to the client, discovered thereโ€™s no internet. Spent the last couple of hours plugging and unplugging the router only to discover the whole village has been cut off... and the day is not over yet! 
Thank eff itโ€™s almost Friday! ๐Ÿ˜†
Howโ€™s your day been? .
