Home Made - Falooda

This is my rendition of Falooda ... Like, I said earlier, use your ingenuity to make what you like - believe me, it will be delicious. These are the things, that I had at home and used them to quickly turn into a delicious dessert.

Home-Made Falooda
1. Boil small quantity of vermicelli (Sewai) and cool it after running through cold water - 2 tsp for one glass of falooda
2. Soak some tapioca (sago / sabudana) for about an hour - use hot water for fast action. The tapioca should be soft and malleable.
3. Thicken milk. You can use condensed milk, instead.

That is all the preparation needed. Now serve the Falooda

In a tall glass (can use wine glass), in the order mentioned below:
1. Pour some milk in the glass
2. Add crushed dry-fruits (almonds, walnuts, pistachio etc)
3. Add 2 spoons full of soft tapioca on top of the dry fruits
4. Add two scoops of vanilla icecream (any other, but chocolate would do)
5. Top it with the cold boiled vermicelli.
6. Give a final touch by adding pomegranates seeds (rose syrup, if at home - I did'nt), some more dry fruits.
7. Stir very lightly, not disturbing the order.

You are all set for a beautiful looking, easy to make at home, dessert. This is something, that can be quickly turned up, if you know how to.
