Leche Flan


Leche flan ala Bechay :)

I made some leche flan last Monday night but I forgot to take photos so I made some again today. I would like to share this recipe to my Pinay friend Meding, now based in Australia who asked for this and of course to you who is reading right now :)

Leche Flan Recipe

You will need:
  • 1 can (390g) evaporated milk
  • 1 can (390g) condensed milk
  • 10 egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract or lemon essence
For the caramel:
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup water
Instruction:
  1. In a saucepan, mix the sugar & water. Bring to a boil for a few minutes until the sugar caramelize.
  2. Pour the caramelized sugar into aluminum moulds – you can use any shape: oval, round or square. Spread the caramel on the bottom of the moulds.
  3. Mix well the evaporated milk, condensed milk, egg yolks and vanilla by hand or blender.
  4. Sieve or strain.
  5. Gently pour the mixture on top of the caramel on the aluminum moulds. Fill the moulds to about 1 to 1-1/4 inch thick.
  6. Cover moulds individually with aluminum foil.
  7. Steam for about 20 minutes
  8. Let cool then refrigerate.
