Here's a fabulous flavoursome flan from the kitchens of
xariawolf
First attempt making some flan. I'd say it was a success. :3 Making the caramel took about 7 tries though before something not burnt or crystallized was produced.
OM NOM. <3
For those of you curious to try this yourselves, here's the recipe I used! :D
-Coconut Flan-
-6 Eggs
-1 14oz can condensed milk
-1 12oz can evaporated milk
-1 15oz can of cream of coconut
-1 1/2 cup of whole milk
-1 tsp vanilla extract
-1 cup of sugar (to make the caramel sauce)
- *I also added 2 tsp extra of coconut extract to make it extra flavorful, but this isn't necessary.
In a heavy pot or deep saucepan, add the 1 cup of sugar and cook on medium heat. (Some people add 2 table spoons of water here, but I found that this method didn't work for me and it was best to cook the sugar straight) Do NOT stir, or it WILL crystallize!!!! Instead, pick up the pan occasionally and swirl it until all the sugar melts and deepens into a deep amber color. Immediately pour it into ramekins or baking dish of choice. Swirl the sugar in the baking dish around so all sides of it are coated and your flan wont stick.
In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the other ingredients and whisk until you have a uniform cream mixture. Pour this mixture into your already caramel coated baking dish. Put a large, deep pan with water up to an inch into your oven and set the temperature to 350. Once it heats up, carefully place your ramekins/baking dish with flan mixture in the hot water bath. This will steam for approx 60 minutes. Check to see if its done by inserting a knife or toothpick in the center of the flan, and it should come out clean. Let flan cool in the fridge for at least 4 hours, if possible overnight.
When removing flan from baking dish, heat the bottom of the pan/dish with warm water. Then set a plate on top of the dish, quickly flipping it upside down.
Taa daa~!

I love flan. It looks really good.
I have found that it's a good idea to add some liquid (I've even used rum, it seemed to work pretty well) and even a pat of butter to the sugar. It keeps the sugar from crystallizing but don't worry so much if the sugar becomes hard in your baking dish. It will soften in the oven due to the heat and moisture from the flan.
