Flan — Mexican recipe
Flan, photographed for the Kitchen Pantri cookbook.

Flan

Two layers, five ingredients: caramel cooked in a saucepan and set in the bottom of the pan, then a milk-and-egg custard baked slowly over it in a tray of water. Overnight in the fridge is not optional — that is when the hard caramel turns back into sauce.
