Ingredients
- 1/2 Tbsp basil seeds or chia seeds as substitute
- 1 cup water
- 3/4 oz vermicelli noodles, (1/2 cup cooked noodles) - falooda sev, traditionally, but any fine noodles will work
- 2 Tbsp rose syrup
- 1 cup milk
Instructions
- Put the basil seeds in a bowl or jug and cover with the water. Leave for at least 20-30 minutes, or a little longer to soak and expand.
- Cook the noodles according to packet instructions, drain and set aside.
- Drain the basil seeds then divide them between two glasses (you should have around 2 1/2 tbsp in each). Top with the cooked noodles then a tbsp of rose syrup in each.
- Top each of the glasses with milk and serve.
Notes
- Some versions add some cubes of jello (rose, strawberry or raspberry flavor) after the basil seeds. You can also top the glasses with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. If you do, it works to decorate the top with some chopped dried fruit and nuts to serve.
- The rose syrup is typically colored - if it is not, then add a little food coloring to the syrup or milk.
