Semolina Pudding with Red Currant Sauce

Ingredients

Pudding:

• 1 quart milk
• 3 1/2 ounces sugar
• 1 3/4 ounces butter
• 3 ounces semolina

Sauce:

• 12 1/4 ounces fresh red currants
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 lemon, juiced

Boil currants with the water, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook until the sugar is dissolved and the currants are very soft, about 10 minutes. Puree mixture in a blender and then push through a strainer to get a smooth sauce.
