FLAN
 
 
Ingredients
  • • 1 cup sugar
  • • 2 cups milk
  • • 2 cups fresh cream
  • • ½ cup condensed milk
  • • 8 eggs
  • • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
Instructions
  1. Add the sugar to a pan and spread it into an even layer. Cook over medium heat without stirring until the sugar melts and turns a golden amber colour.
  2. Immediately pour the caramel into a 7-inch baking mould, carefully tilting the mould to spread the caramel evenly across the base. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, add the milk, fresh cream, condensed milk, eggs and vanilla extract.
  4. Whisk gently until all the ingredients are well combined.
  5. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps and ensure a smooth, silky flan.
  6. Pour the strained flan mixture gently over the set caramel.
  7. Cover the mould tightly with aluminium foil.Place the mould in a larger baking tray and pour in enough hot water to create a water bath, reaching about halfway up the sides of the flan mould.
  8. ⁠Bake at 160°C for approximately 2½ hours, or until the edges are set while the centre still has a gentle jiggle.
  9. Refrigerate overnight and serve chilled.
