Notes

To make my job easier, I have used store-bought Amul Rasgulla, which is available in all Indian stores, especially during Diwali. You can check my recipe here if you want to do rasgulla at home.

Falooda Sev: To make falooda, thin noodles or sev called falooda sev are used. If it is unavailable, you can use thin vermicelli as I did in the recipe.

Flavored milk: You can flavor your milk with rose syrup (Rooh Afza), mango essence or mango milkshake powder, pistachio essence or pistachio milkshake powder, badam milk powder, etc.

Sabja seeds: This is the key ingredient while preparing falooda. Its texture in the falooda makes it irresistible. Sabja seeds are also known as basil seeds or tukmaria. You can use chia seeds or cooked sabudana (tapioca pearls) if sabja seeds are unavailable.

Jelly: Any flavored jelly goes well with falooda. I prefer strawberry and mango. You can bring the jello or jelly crystal and make it the previous night as per package instructions and let it set in the refrigerator.

Ice cream: To make this dessert colorful for Diwali, I have used green color pistachio ice cream. You can use Kesar or mango ice cream or basic vanilla ice cream in the recipe.
