Semolina dumplings are a traditional homemade dish made with milk, semolina, butter, and eggs, suitable for soup or as a meal on their own. Cook the milk and semolina into a thick porridge, let it cool, then stir in the eggs. Use a wet teaspoon to form small dumplings and boil them for about five minutes. For a main dish, serve them fried in lard with bacon and onion; for a sweet version, serve with tvaroh, a fresh curd cheese, poppy seeds, or nuts.

Instructions
Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.
Bring the milk to a boil and salt it lightly.
Add the butter, then pour in the semolina, stirring constantly. Cook until a thick porridge forms, let cool, then stir in the eggs.
Use a wet teaspoon to scoop small dumplings from the mixture and cook them in boiling water for 5 minutes.
Fry the onion and bacon in lard, then toss with the dumplings.
Tip: Add the dumplings to soup just before serving, as they will gradually swell and soften in hot broth. Reduce the heat after adding them to boiling water, since a vigorous boil could cause them to fall apart.
