Delicious cheesy semolina pudding!
When I was asked by @livbank to share an easy recipe for those Ramadan nights in, I knew it had to be something warm, sweet and delicious. This simple and heartwarming dessert will remind you of kunafa with its milky soft texture and is ready in under 15min. Use orange blossom to flavor your sugar syrup, some chopped pistachios to top it up and you will have a hug in a bowl! #liv4nightsin Semolina dessert

Sugar syrup
Bring it to a simmer over medium high heat, then reduce the heat to medium low and pour in your semolina in a steady stream. Whisk the semolina until fully combined with no lumps. Continue to stir while the mixture comes back to a simmer, and it will thicken in about 2-3 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in your cheese of choice, whisking until well combined and melted. Check the texture. Add more milk if you want it creamier or more cheese if you want it cheesier.
Serve with the sugar syrup.
Last steps
Simmer on medium heat until sugar has dissolved and syrup has thickened, for 5-10min.
Turn off heat and add orange blossom
