Steps:
- Combine milk and butter in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Pour in semolina and quickly stir until the mixture pulls away from the sides of the pan.
- Remove from heat, slightly cool, then mix in eggs, salt, and pepper. Divide this mixture in 2 portions. Add grated cheese to one half and basil to the other half.
- Heat 3 quarts of salted water in a large saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, place 3 tablespoons flour onto a plate. Form the dough into 3/4 inch by 2 1/2 inch sausage-shaped quenelles. Roll each quenelle in flour and set aside.
- Drop quenelles in the boiling water and cook until they float to the top. Remove from the water with a slotted spoon and transfer onto a serving dish.
