Leche Flan

leche plan
A popular dessert in the Philippines that probably has some Hispanic origin or influence as the name goes (the Spanish word "leche" means milk while "flan" means pudding.)

· 1 cup evaporated milk
· 8 egg yolk
· 2 eggs
· 1 cup condensed milk
· 2 tbsp grated orange, lime or lemon gind

In large bowl, mix eggs, egg yolks, condensed milk and evaporated milk. Add the grated orange and mix well. Strain mixture into caramel-line containers.


· 1 1/2 cup water
· 1 cup sugar

Pour the water in the non-sticky pan. Put the sugar in the center and let it boil. Do not stir. When sugar starts to brown, about 5 minutes. Lower the heat. Tip the pan back and forth to distribute caramelized sugar evenly in the pan. Steam for 30 minutes. Let it coll the chill before serving.

Turn the container onto the plate to serve.
