Quick semolina cake
Description
The baking is simple and quick. This is an original recipe: instead of soaking semolina in liquid for a long time, we'll quickly cook semolina porridge, then turn it into dough by adding soft cheese and eggs. The delicate flavor with lemon notes will drive any gourmet crazy—I guarantee it. Be sure to try it!
