FALOODA AN EXOTIC DESSERT 

Servings: 2

Ingredients:

Falooda Sev – 1 small bowl

Basil seeds – 3 tbsp

Milk – 2 cups

Sugar – 4 tbsp

Rose syrup – 2 tbsp

Ice Cream – 2 scoop

Pistachios (Pesta or Pista) – 1 tbsp, chopped

Cashew Nuts – 1 tbsp, finely chopped

Rose Petals – 4 pieces (optional and uses only for garnishing)

Preparation:

Take water in a bowl and soak basil seeds for at least 30 minutes. After 30 minutes drain the water and keep the soaked basil seeds aside.

Then in a pan take milk and add sugar into it and start boiling the milk by continuous stirring. When the milk starts boiling put the flame in low and let it be in simmer for 10 minutes so that milk becomes little thick.

Switch off the oven, remove the pan and allow it to cool down. Then put the milk in the refrigerator to make it chilled.

You can buy the Falooda sev from any departmental stores or any grocery stores.

To prepare Falooda, take some water in a pan, let it come to boil. Add falooda sev and let it cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Drain the water and immediately rinse it with cold water. You can cut the falooda by knife or scissor to shorten the length so that it will be easier to eat later.

Now it’s the time to prepare the falooda.

Take two glasses and at first you need to add basil seeds to it. On top of it add Falooda sev.

Then on each glass add rose syrup (1 tbsp) all around the top of the glass and pour the milk, leaving some space of the glass so that when you add scoop (1 scoop) of ice cream on each glass it doesn’t overflow.

Finally garnish with chopped pistachios, cashew nut and rose petals. You can use other any fruits for garnishing, like pomegranate, strawberries, mango slices and many more.

Serve immediately.
