ButterTo taste

Instruction

  • ▢ Cook the sour cream in a covered saucepan on medium heat for about 5 minutes
  • ▢ Turn down the heat and add half of the flour and stir well with a whisk
  • Once the flour is fully incorporated, let the mixture continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until fat starts to release
  • Use a spoon to gather as much of the fat as you can in a small bowl, saving for later
  • (Don't worry if you can't get any fat – in that case you can add butter later
  • ) ▢ Whisk in the rest of the flour and then slowly add the milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps
  • Let the porridge continue to cook on low heat for 5 minutes and then add salt
  • ▢ Serve with sugar, cinnamon, and the fat from the porridge
  • If you're using lower fat sour cream you can top the rømmegrøt with some butter instead
