Procedure:

1. Prepare:

Preheat oven to 180 deg Celsius.

Have ready a 24cm (8") round

stainless steel aluminum cake tin or 3


traditional oval llaneras. Put a kettle of

water to boil.

*You also have the option to steam the

leche flan over gently boiling water for

about 50 minutes.

2. Make Caramel:

In a small, heavy bottomed saucepan,

over medium-high heat, combine the

granulated sugar and water. Stir

frequently as the mixture heats to

dissolve the sugar. Once mixture


comes to a boil, do not stir again but

only occasionally swirl the pan to

distribute the heat. Keep it boiling until

the edges start to caramelize and the

syrup stops bubbling (around 8

minutes, depending on your pan).

When it starts to color, frequently swirl

the pan until the sugar is caramelized.

Use your sight and smell to gauge

your caramel. It should be a rich

amber color with a distinct caramel


aroma. Before the syrup turns dark

amber, pour it into your cake tin or

llaneras. Swirl the tin so that the

caramel coats the bottom. The

caramel will continue to darken as it

sets. Leave it to cool on your

countertop.

3. Make the custard:

In a large bowl, gently whisk the egg

yolks to loosen them. Pour in NESTLE

All Purpose Cream and Milkmaid


condensed milk. Continue mixing

gently until combined. Try not to make

the mixture bubble.

Pour the mixture through a very fine

sieve into the caramel lined pan, trying

to avoid forming bubbles.

Loosely cover the pan with aluminum

foil.

4. Bake the Flan (or steam it! See

Procedure 1)
Place the pan into a large roasting pan

or a larger cake tin and put this into

the oven. Take your boiling water and

pour it into the larger pan/cake tin, until

water comes up about 1/3 to halfway

up the sides of the smaller cake tin.

This is called your Bain Marie or Bano

Maria.

Bake in the preheated oven for about

50 minutes.
To test if the custard is done, lift up the

foil and insert a thin knife into the

center of the custard. If you can see

the lines made by the knife, the

custard is done. If the knife comes out

with bits of custard sticking to it or if

the point where it enters looks curdled,

give it another 5-10 minutes and then

check again.

When it's done, take it out of the oven

and out of the large, water-filled pan.


Refrigerate at least 6 hours or

overnight. The unmolded flan will keep

in the fridge for up to a week.

5. To serve:

Run a thin-bladed knife around the

edge of the of the cold flan (between

the flan and the cake tin). Invert a

serving dish over the cake tin. With 2

hands, hold the dish firmly against the

tin then quickly flip both over. Carefully

lift the pan off the dish. Use a spoon

the scrape the syrup that's stuck to the


tin and pour it over the flan. Whack the

hardened caramel on the tin with the

back side of the spoon so that it

breaks into shards. Scrape the

shattered caramel onto the top of the

flan for a decorative finish and added

crunch.
