Corinna'S Cream Caramel
- 1 can condensed milk
- 2 cans (above measurement) milk
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cardamon
- 1 pinch zafaron dissolved in a tablespoon hot water.
- 1 teaspoon corn starch
- 1 1/2 cup sugar for melting
- few drops of lemon juice.
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- In a blender mix all ingredients well except sugar and lemon drops. Reserve.
- In a medium skillet and low to medium heat melt sugar with drops of lemon juice until it turns into a golden/amber color.
- Carefully and using an oven mitten transfer melted sugar to a warm flan pan( I usually let the pan warming up in the oven to prevent the sugar from hardening too fast).
- Hold the flan pan with care and tilt it to evenly coat the melted sugar to the bottom and sides of pan.
- Put prepared pan inside a larger round or square baking pan filled with 1/4 water.
- Cover the pan inside with aluminum foil or oven proof lid.
- Bake it for 45 minutes.
- After the cream caramel has cooled down refrigerate it for a few hours or more.
- When ready to be served cover the pan with serving platter and invert the cream caramel.
- Enjoy it.
