    Title: Guryev Porridge
    Categories: Dessert, Russian
    Yield: 1 Batch

    1 l Milk (4 c)
    3 tb Semolina; heaping
    2 tb Sugar
    50 g Nuts (2 oz)
    50 g Butter (2 oz)
    2 tb Honey
    1 ts Vanilla sugar
    1 tb Poppy seeds
    Blackcurrant jam
    Dried fruits
    1 pn Salt

    Start with the most complicated step: making the milk skins. Pour
    half of the milk into a pan or any baking dish with a wide surface.
    Put it in the oven and bake at 200°C/400°F until you notice the
    golden-brown "skin" on the surface. Take the dish out of the oven and
    remove the skins with a slotted spoon.

    Place the dish back in the oven and repeat the process until you run
    out of milk and have enough caramelly milk skins to put in your
    porridge.

    Next, make basic semolina porridge: pour the remaining half of milk
    into a pan, add semolina, sugar, vanilla sugar, and salt. Bring the
    porridge to a slight boil, constantly whisking it–-this way you
    easily avoid unwanted semolina lumps. After some minutes you'll
    notice how the mixture gets thicker and thicker. Remove the ready
    porridge from the heat, add half of the butter and separate the
    porridge into two equal parts. Add poppy seeds in one half, mix
    properly and set both parts of the porridge aside.

    To make blackcurrant jam just take frozen blackcurrant, add a 2 tb of
    sugar and bring it to a slight boil. Stew for 5 minutes and cool
    completely. You can use not only blackcurrant but any berries to your
    liking.

    Now layer the dessert: put the first layer of poppy seed porridge,
    then milk skins, cover it with 1 tb of berry jam, add some chopped
    dried fruits such as raisins or any berries, and sprinkle with milled
    nuts–-here I use hazelnuts.

    Then add another layer of vanilla porridge, a couple of small pieces
    of butter and finish with more chopped nuts and a spoon of honey.

    Bake Guryev porridge at 180°C/350°F for about 20 to 25 minutes and
    serve warm.
