Creamy Semolina Pudding with Milk and Eggs

1.In a medium saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent it from scorching.

2.In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined and slightly frothy.

3.Once the milk is simmering, gradually add the semolina while continuously stirring to prevent lumps from forming.

4.Continue to cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

5.Reduce the heat to low and slowly pour the egg mixture into the semolina mixture, stirring constantly to incorporate the eggs without scrambling them.

6.If using, add the ground cardamom, raisins, and chopped nuts, and stir well to combine.

7.Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and the pudding is creamy and smooth.

8.Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before serving. You can serve it warm or chilled, garnished with additional nuts or a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
