Flan in a cup
Makes 4 cups of flan.
1 3/4 cups milk, 5 tablespoons sugar, 3 eggs, a little bit of vanilla.
Caramel sauce: 3 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon water.
Step 1: Put milk on low and add sugar. Stir well and when the sugar melts, stop the heat and cool for a minuet. Mske sure you dont let the milk boil.
Step 2: break the eggs in a bowl and stir well.
Step 3: slowly pour the milk from step 1 into the bowl from step 2 and stir. Add some vanilla.
Step 4: Puor the mix from step 3 through a strainer. This makes the flan smoother.
Step 5: Make the caramel sauce in a small pot. Put the water and sugar into the pot and stir quickly over high heat. When it becoms brown, remove from heat and put it into four cups.
Step 6: Pour the mix from step 4 into the cups over the caramel sauce.
Step 7: Fill a pot with water and put a steamer above it. When the water starts steaming, stop the heat and put the cups in the steamer. Please be careful not to burn yourself. After 2 to 3 minutes on high heat, lower the heat and stem for another 13 to 15 munutes. When you put it on low heat, move the lid a little so that some of the steam will escape. The piont is to maintain it on low heat. If you put a towel under the lid, water won't get into the flan.
Top it with whipped cream or fruit and it will be good!
