Assemble the Kulfi Falooda
Serve Immediately

A modern take on the classic. Use chocolate ice cream, chocolate syrup instead of rose syrup, and garnish with chocolate shavings.

The generous use of milk and condensed milk makes Kulfi Falooda a good source of calcium, which is vital for maintaining strong bones and healthy teeth.
The fiber content in sabja seeds can help promote a healthy digestive system. When soaked, they become gelatinous and can have a soothing effect on the stomach.

Yes. The kulfi can be made and stored in the freezer for up to a month. The cooked sev and soaked sabja seeds can be refrigerated for up to 2 days. However, it is crucial to assemble the falooda just before serving to maintain the best texture.
This usually happens if the sev is overcooked or not rinsed immediately and thoroughly with cold water after draining. The cold water wash is essential to remove excess starch and stop the cooking process.
