You can also boil the milk until it reduces and thickens a bit. Usually milk is boiled until it reduces to half. Then chilled.
Add falooda seeds to a tea strainer and rinse them with clean water.
Soak them in a bowl of water for 20 minutes. Drain them to the tea strainer if there is excess water. If you skip this step your falooda will thin down with the excess water.
Check the instructions on the falooda sev pack. Some need just a hot water soak and some require boiling. Mine was supposed to be boiled. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a pot.
Add vermicelli or sev and cook until just done. Follow the instructions on the pack for cook time.
Drain excess water and set aside.

Then scoop off the ice cream and add it to the glass. Sprinkle fine chopped nuts. Top with glazed cherries if you have.
Serve falooda immediately.
