LECHE FLAN or CARAMEL CUSTARD/FILIPINO CUSTARD

Leche flan is known also known as “Créme caramel”. Créme caramel is a variant of plain custard (créme) where some caramel syrup is poured into the mold before adding the custard base. After the custard has set, it is turned out, leaving a caramel sauce on top. Creme Bruleé is also almost the same, same creaminess but with the sugar burnt on top.  (from mylifeisfood)

It is one of the food I like and one of my favorites. It’s easy to make like the basic ingredients are: fresh milk/evaporated milk, condensed milk, egg yolk, vanilla extract, lemon zest and sugar.

Random fact:  it’s very delicious but it has a lot of cholesterol due to the egg yolks.
