Falooda Recipe

Falooda is a south asian version of a cold dessert made with the combination of falooda seeds, sev, milk and flavor of choice. Here, I made falooda by adding seeds, sev, rose milk essence along with a topping of strawberry ice cream. It follows very simple procedures and can be quickly made. I made falooda in the morning and refrigerated it to have it in dinner time
