Indulgent Spanish flan: a creamy baked custard with luscious caramel topping.
Ingredients:
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) for the perfect cooking temperature.
  • In a medium saucepan, gently melt sugar over medium-low heat until it becomes a smooth, golden liquid. Pour the hot syrup into a deep 9-inch round glass baking dish, swirling to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla until smooth. Pour the mixture over the caramel in the baking dish and place it in a deep roasting pan. Gently add enough hot water to come up 1 inch along the sides of the dish.
  • Bake in the oven at the set temperature until slightly jiggly in the center, approximately for 1 hour, start checking at 55 minutes. Remember that the flan will further set as it cools. Once done, transfer the dish to a wire rack to cool down to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap to avoid a skin forming. Refrigerate for 3 hours or up to 3 days.
  • To plate, glide a knife along the edges of the dish, gently flip onto a serving plate, and allow the caramel sauce to cascade over the flan.
