Steps

  1. 1
    Heat the milk with the sugar and salt in a heavy pan over medium heat until it just comes to the boil — watch it, as milk rises fast.
  2. 2
    Lower the heat and rain in the semolina in a thin stream, whisking constantly.
  3. 3
    Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon, until it thickens into a loose porridge that coats the spoon; it sets further as it cools, so take it off a little thinner than you want it.
  4. 4
    Take off the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla.
  5. 5
    Leave for 2 minutes and stir again, as a skin forms quickly.
  6. 6
    Ladle into bowls, sprinkle with cinnamon, add a spoonful of jam to each and serve warm.
