When I was a child my mum always made me a semolina pudding and at the end whipped up 1 or a couple of eggs! and stirred the fluffy egg mixture through. I just loved it but she cannot remember how she made it. I bought semolina and have not yet worked out what to do with it. I must experiment this weekend.
