Notes

  • Don't over cook the caramel, else the sugar might get burnt and taste bitter.
  • Instead of evaporated milk, you can use regular milk. 
  • Instead of using blender, you can blend the custard in a bowl using a whisk.
  • Once flan is baked, chill in fridge till it is completely cold and set before unmoulding.
