CARAMEL

Step 3: right away pour caramel into the baking dish and swirl the caramel all around the dish to cover the bottom and the side surface of the pan.

Step 4: set a side to cool off

While the caramel hardens prepare the custard

Vanilla custard

Step 5: In a blender add the eggs and blend for about 2 minutes (I do this to take the eggy taste away, trust me it helps)

Step 6: add the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla and blend together with the eggs until blended well together.

Step 7: pour mixture in the baking dish with the caramel( you may hear a crackling sound, thats normal)

Step 8: carefully put the pan in a bigger baking dish and add the boiling water carefully with out any getting in the mixture (this is doing a baine marie )

Step 9: cover with foil paper put in the oven for one hour and 15 minutes

Step 9: slide a knife all around the pan and let cool. Once cool refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight

step 10: once your ready to serve get a serving dish big enough to flip the pan over it, place the dish over the baking dish and flip it

ENJOY!
