CRÈME CARAMEL
 
 
Ingredients
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 2 eggs
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • ½ cup cream
  • ⅓ cup condensed milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
  1. Add sugar and water in a pan and heat on medium-low without stirring till a nice amber coloured caramel is achieved.
  2. ⁠Carefully pour the caramel into a 700ml oval dish. Swirl it around to cover all the corners.
  3. ⁠While the caramel cools, combine eggs, milk, cream, condensed milk and vanilla extract in a bowl and whisk well to combine everything.
  4. Strain this mixture over the cooled caramel using a sieve. This will ensure that there are no air bubbles in the custard and it is smooth all around.
  5. ⁠To steam the creme caramel, place a large pan/ cooker on medium-low heat and place a small stand in the centre. Cover the dish with foil paper and carefully place on top of the stand.
  6. Add water upto 1 inch in the cooker and close the lid. Make sure there is space for steam to pass out.
  7. ⁠Cook this on medium low heat for 30-35 min or till it sets.
  8. Once cooked, carefully take it out and place a serving dish over it. Invert the dish to demould and chill before serving.
