This dish is very typical in the Alpujarra region of Granada. Migas here are made with wheat semolina instead of stale bread, so they cook much faster.

Steps

30 min.

1

Coat a large skillet with extra virgin olive oil.
2

Sauté the head of garlic, cut in half, in the oil.
3

Remove the fried garlic and turn off the heat. Let the oil cool, then add the water.
4

Turn the heat back on. When the water starts to boil, add a little salt and the wheat semolina.
5

Reduce the heat to low and stir constantly to form a smooth dough. The semolina tends to clump, so keep breaking up and stirring the lumps to loosen them.
6

After about 10 minutes, the migas will be much looser. Turn off the heat and adjust the salt if needed.
7

Serve with the fried garlic, melon, orange slices, roasted small onions, fried green bell peppers, olives, or any other toppings you like. I love them with chistorra sausage and cod. Enjoy!
