Ice Cream Falooda - Sindhi Speciality

 I love savoury dishes and I normally experiment on spicy dishes. Sweet dishes (I hardly ever make, I am too lazy)  I normally eat at the restaurant or at festive events. 

But recently, I received an ice cream courtesy Brookyl Cremery  and I decided to experiment with it.

Sindhis have their speciality in desserts called Rabri Falooda and during parties, you are likely to be served this rich flavoured milk and vermicelli dessert.

This was a good opportunity to try with different flavours. Instead of kulfi, I decided to use this ice-cream and the result was delicious.
