4. Then take off from the gas and pour it into the serving glasses over the biscuit layer. Refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes.

Story
My name is Tanya Bhatia and I'm from India. My love for cooking began from a very young age when I saw my mom cooking and baking us unique dishes in our house kitchen and it finally became my passion and I started a YouTube Channel, The Grace Kitchen in 2020.
My grandma used to make stuffed potato breads in the charcoal oven and God, they tasted heavenly. That’s when I knew I loved food and it made me so happy.
The story behind this recipe is actually very simple, I had tried many Pudding recipes, but nothing that had a rose flavour. So I experimented with rose petals jam and the taste was amazing. Making it with agar agar powder, the pudding had an excellent texture to it.
