Rose Falooda (Persian-inspired sundae)

How do you beat the heat with 16 minutes of effort and without a 1000 calories? Enter Rose Falooda. This is a dessert that has cooling sweet basil seeds (a.k.a Tukmaria) and with rose syrup (either made from scratch with rose petals, water and sugar or some instant /store version of that). I had rose syrup pre-made, staple pantry ingredient since rose milk is also a quick remedy for heartburn, good to keep handy if you’re a spicy food lover. A popular Bombay version (of course!) of Rose Falooda uses vermicelli noodles, topped with soaked sweet basil seeds, then rose milk shake topped with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream. Toppings vary from crushed pistachios, rose petals, and some red fruit tutti-fruti(candies fruit pieces). I didn’t have the latter so I used bite-sized fruit Jam cubes. Worked great! The kiddos were excited to try something that Mum and Dad grew up, indulging in!

16 min effort, 2 mins to soak tukmaria + vermicelli, 5-7 min light boil of milk, 5 mins of assembly. The cooling time for milk can be upto 30 mins, can skip if you use pasteurized store milk. If you do that, you can cook the noodles with a quick boil of water.

I used part whole milk, part 1%, because I like the taste that way. You’re welcome to use your fav kind of milk. For best results, use dairy/cow’s milk.


I hope you try it and tag #theflavorstation #crispy#creative#aromatic#plantbasedrecipes#fusionfood#easycooking#highprotein
