Leche Flan, A popular Filipino cuisine, Options

[BeyondElite]

Ingredients:
1¼ cups sugar
8 egg yolks
2½ cups fresh milk
¼ tsp. finely grated lime or lemon rind
½ tsp. vanilla

Procedure:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Melt 1/2 cup of the sugar in an 8" round baking pan over low heat. Tip pan back and forth to distribute caramelized sugar evenly and avoid burning.

2. Beat yolks until well blended. Add remaining sugar gradually, stirring to mix thoroughly. Pour milk slowly into yolk mixture stirring constantly. Add lime or lemon rind and vanilla. Mix well.

3. Pour mixture in caramel-lined pan. Place it in a larger, shallow baking pan and set it in the middle shelf of the oven. Pour enough hot water in the bigger pan to come halfway up the sides of the custard pan. Bake for 1&1/2 to 2 hours or until knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

4. Let cool to room temperature. Chill for several hours before serving.
