Curd Caramel Flan

Instructions

1. 1

   Begin by preparing the caramel. In a saucepan, melt the caramel sugar over medium heat until it turns a deep amber color. Be careful not to burn it.

2. 2

   Once the caramel is ready, pour it into the bottom of a flan mold or individual ramekins, swirling to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden.

3. 3

   In a separate bowl, mix the gelatin with a little cold water to bloom. Let it sit for about 5 minutes.

4. 4

   In a saucepan, heat the curd and cream over medium heat until warm but not boiling. Stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.

5. 5

   Add the vanilla extract to the curd mixture and stir well.

6. 6

   Pour the curd mixture over the hardened caramel in the mold or ramekins.

7. 7

   Allow the flan to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.

8. 8

   To serve, run a knife around the edges of the flan to loosen it, then invert onto a serving plate. Enjoy your Curd Caramel Flan!
