Vanilla flan

Easy summer recipe discovered through my Spanish neighbor (thnx!) Really fast to prepare but needs to be prepared a day ahead!



Ingredients
1 can of concentrated Nestle milk (397gr)
1 1/3 of the above empty can of milk
3 eggs
vanilla
1/2 cup of sugar (for the caramel)


Procedure

1. Put in the oven and at 180 degrees of Celsius, a wide oven dish filled with water up to 1/3 of it and wait to warm enough.  
2. Prepare the caramel by putting the sugar and a bit of water in a small casserole. Bring it to boil and wait for a couple of minutes until it turns to a nice caramel. Be careful though that it won't burn!
3. Pour the caramel in a cake mold and stir it to cover well the bottom and a bit the edges.
4. Beat well using a mixer the rest of the ingredients and pour the liquid mixture over the caramel.
5. Put the cake mold in the oven as in bain-marie and bake for about 30min.
6. take it out of the oven to cool down.
7. Refrigerate for several hours or better overnight.
8. Carefully un-mold the flan in a nice recipient, pour the rest of the caramel to drip on top and enjoy!
