<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 1</h4>
Begin by soaking the basil seeds in a bowl with 3/4 cup of water for about 20 minutes until they swell up and become gelatinous. This texture is crucial for the traditional mouthfeel of the falooda.
</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 2</h4>
While the basil seeds are soaking, boil the vermicelli noodles in another pot of water for about 5 minutes, or until they're fully cooked and soft. Drain them and set aside to cool. Be careful not to overcook the noodles, as they should retain a slight bite.
</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 3</h4>
In a saucepan, gently heat the milk until it starts to simmer—not boil. Once simmering, turn off the heat and let it cool to room temperature. If you prefer a thicker falooda, you can reduce the milk slightly by simmering it for longer.
</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 4</h4>
To assemble the falooda, grab four tall glasses and pour 1 tablespoon of rose syrup into each glass. Next, divide the soaked basil seeds equally among the glasses, followed by the cooked vermicelli noodles.
</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 5</h4>
Gently pour the cooled milk into the glasses, leaving about an inch of space at the top. The milk will mix with the rose syrup, creating a beautiful pink gradient.
</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 6</h4>
Top each glass with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The ice cream will slowly melt into the milk, adding to the falooda's luxurious texture and taste.
</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 7</h4>
Garnish each glass with chopped pistachios and optional rose petals. Serve immediately with a long spoon and straw, encouraging your guests to mix the layers before enjoying.
