Creme Caramel

One of my favourite dessert  Creme Caramel/Caramel Custard/Flan is soft melt in mouth dessert made with milk eggs and sugar .This dessert is loved equally by kids and adults. You can make it in ramekins or could use mould too.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup milk
3eggs
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup sugar
2 tbsp water
1 tsp vanilla extract

Method:
In a heavy bottomed saucepan add 3/4 cup sugar and 2 tbsp water Place the  saucepan over low heat .once the sugr melts increase the heat to med and boil until it begins to caramelise.turning golden brown ..remove it from heat or it will continue to darken and may turn too dark or even burn.
Carefully remove (it or you may burn yourself )and pour it in the ramekins or mould.
In another saucepan heat milk ..dont let the milk boil..
Whisk eggs,yolk ,1/4 cup sugar  and vanilla together Whisk in  milk in few additions Strain through a fine sieve and stir in vanilla.  Pour custard in the mould or divide evenly among ramekins.
Prepare a waterbath by adding boiling water just to the level of the mould.
Place the ramekins/mould in the water bath and bake for 35 min at 160 Degree Celsius.
Cool at room temperrature for 30 min  then refrigerate for 3-4 hours.
To unmould  run a sharp knife around  mould/inside of each ramekins and invert onto a serving plate, gently shaking to release.
