Albanian Savory Semolina Porridge (Harapash me Vezë)

HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

In a medium saucepan, combine the milk and salt. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

02

Once simmering, slowly whisk in the semolina in a thin stream to prevent lumps. Continue whisking constantly for 5-7 minutes until the porridge thickens to a creamy consistency.

03

Reduce the heat to low. In a small bowl, lightly beat the two eggs.

04

Gradually pour the beaten eggs into the semolina porridge while continuously stirring. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring, until the eggs are fully incorporated and cooked through.

05

Remove the porridge from the heat and stir in the butter until melted.

06

Divide the Harapash me Vezë into two bowls. Serve immediately, topped with crumbled feta cheese.

Chef's Tips

For an extra creamy texture, use full-fat milk. If you prefer a thinner porridge, add a splash more milk at the end until desired consistency is reached. A pinch of black pepper can also be added for a subtle kick.
↔

Easy Substitutions

You can substitute goat cheese for feta, or omit cheese entirely for a simpler version. For a dairy-free option, use a plant-based milk (like almond or oat milk) and a dairy-free butter alternative.
