Falooda Mousse

I absolutely love the delicate flavour of rose water. Inspired by the indian rose syrup drink Falooda, I came up with a mousse that was reminiscent of that flavour- A Falooda mousse. Light and airy with the delicate , sweet aroma of Rose water.

INGREDIENTS :

1 Can of evaporated milk (Carnation brand used )- Chilled in the refrigerator preferably overnight
2 Tbs Gelatine powder (Halal Gelatin available in most Arabic / Mediterranean stores)
Little bit of water about 3 tbs to mix gelatine powder
2/3 cup of sugar
2 Tbs of Rose water or a few drops of Rose extract
Few drops of red food colouring
Chopped pistachios
Shredded red colour agar agar for decoration (optional)


METHOD :

Open can of evaporated milk and whisk in a bowl until extremely frothy and thick
Gradually add sugar and continue to whisk
Add water to gelatine power  and microwave on high for 20 -25 seconds- Mix well until there are no granules left
Now add the gelatine powder to the whipped evaporated milk mixture and continue to whisk
Pour in serving dishes of your choice (Individuals or one medium sized )
Leave to set in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or more
Add shredded agar agar and pistachios before serving


TIPS :
Use almond flavour and green food colouring instead of rose flavour 
Mango puree can also be added to the carnation milk for a mango mousse
