• 4 eggs
• 400ml whole milk (or 300ml milk + 100ml whipping cream)
• 60g sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional) 🔥 Instructions:

1. Make the caramel:

• In a saucepan, add sugar and water. Heat on medium without stirring.

2. Prepare the flan:

• In a bowl, whisk eggs gently (don’t create bubbles).
• Warm the milk slightly, add sugar and vanilla, stir until dissolved.
• Combine with eggs through a fine sieve for a smooth texture.

3. Pour and steam/bake:

• Pour the flan mix into the caramel-coated molds.
• Steam for 25–30 minutes on low heat (or bake in water bath at 150°C ~40 minutes).
• Cover with foil to prevent bubbles on the surface.

4. Cool and chill:

• Let flan cool at room temperature, then refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving.
