Instructions: FOR THE SEMOLINA:
Boil the water with the salt and sprinkle the semolina over the water, stirring with a wooden spoon. Cook for about 5 minutes over a low flame, until the semolina is thick.

Smooth with your hand, dipped in cold water. When cool, cut into circles or squares and place in oven proof dishes, and cover with just enough tomato sauce. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake at 200c. for about 10-15 minutes.
