Easy
This is a basic way to make flan, but flan is NOT a Mexican dessert. How ignorant.
BucFan It forms a syrupy like 'sauce' on top and you spoon this over each piece. Delicious!
As a lover or caramel flan this hits all the right notes. Yum!!
What sauce are you referring to that you pour over the flan? The recipe isn't clear...
Only recipe that the caramel topping came out right. Used metal skillet and cooked over med-low heat 10 min. Then over low heat stir occasionally for 2 minutes to make sure all is melted. Be watchful when turning golden. Pour in large circle in dish and immediately twirl to cover bottom and sides...perfect.
This is a good flan recipe. I had to melt the sugar at a lower temperature because the first time I tried it on medium heat for 12 minutes, the sugar burned. The next time I melted it on a lower heat and it did fine.
