Sunday snack (2): semolina pudding with orange-banana salad

On another Sunday full of chores, I prepared this pudding or flan right after breakfast. So that at snack time it was a Quick & Easy move. For this plan The Swiss Guy chimed in (see next post: reply to Lucullian Delight's call for fave' cookbooks). The Swiss guy was talking about making pudding with whole wheat semolina.

Semolina pudding with orange-banana salad

From: Gesund und leistungsfähig durch richtige Ernährung Part I by R.Müller (see also next post, and see label The Swiss Guy)

1 liter water
100 g whole wheat semolina
2 tablespoons agar-agar
2-3 tablespoons nut paste (mixture of roasted hazelnuts and almonds)
50-75 g brown sugar*
bit of salt**
1 small pack of real vanilla powder (and not the chemical vanilline, as R.Müller warns)
fruit (oranges, banana)
liquid cream

Let the water come to a boil, add the semolina, and keep stirring.

Add the agar-agar, mix very thoroughly to avoid lumps, and let boil for 10 minutes.

Turn off the heat, remove from oven top and mix with the remaining ingredients: nut paste, sugar, salt, and vanilla powder.

Pour the pudding in small ramequins. Let cool.

Peel one orange per person, and remove everything except the flesh, cut half a banana per person, and mix both fruits with 1 tablespoon of liquid cream.

Notes:
*Sugar: drastic as I am, I used only 2 tablespoons of muscovado sugar.
**I didn't add salt as this heavenly nut paste from a brand called Monki already contains salt.

I liked this, but as a fan of The Swiss Guy I'm pretty much biased. Serving this to eaters able to voice (dis)like would be a good litmus test-I'll bet that on account of the jellification and the brown color, most wouldn't be too fond.
