1 cup (225 g) sugar
1/4 cup (59 ml) rose water
Saffron (optional)

Preparation

Combine sugar and water in a small pot. Simmer over medium-high heat until sugar is dissolved (about 3-5 minutes).

Remove from the heat, add saffron and rose water and stir. Set syrup aside until it is cooled down.

Cook the rice noodles (about 10-14 minutes). Drain and rinse under cold running water until cool. Drain again and cut noodles into two-inch (5 cm) pieces, using scissors.

Add the noodles to the sirup and stir well, then place it in the freezer until frozen (about 4-5 hours).

To serve, place into individual dessert dishes and add lemon juice.

Serve immediately.
