Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make semolina cream for lemon cake? To begin, prepare the products according to the list. I advise you to take small semolina. Although you can beat a large one with a blender so that no one will guess what the cream is made of. Remove the butter from the refrigerator in advance; it should be soft. Pour the milk into a saucepan or ladle and bring to a boil over low heat. Do not leave milk unattended for a long time, it may run away!

Step 2

Step 2
At this stage we simply cook semolina porridge. After boiling, slowly, in small portions, pour semolina into the pan, stirring the porridge constantly. Thanks to this, it will turn out to have a homogeneous structure, without lumps. Cooking time may take between 3-10 minutes. It depends on the stove, the cereal, the volume of liquid and the desired thickness. Add sugar and vanilla sugar. Cook semolina until medium thick. Then remove from heat and cool.

Step 3

Step 3
Beat soft butter with a mixer or blender until fluffy.

Step 4

Step 4
Gradually add semolina porridge to the whipped butter in small portions, stirring the mixture with a mixer at low speed.

Step 5

Step 5
Pour lemon juice into the cream, strained through a strainer. Then beat it again. The cream should be fluffy and of uniform consistency. If you have small semolina, even semolina grains will not be visible in it. But you still won’t be able to get rid of them completely. Therefore, it is better to use this cream for soaking the cakes, and not for decorating or leveling the cake.
