Crème Caramel

By Rumblingtummy @RumblingTummi
A recent sudden death of a very dear friend left some regrets in my hub and myself.  So have been reminiscing old times, old friends and old activities.

When I was young, I really love Crème caramel and I think we learn this in school home economic too.  Anyway, been a long while I last make these at home.   Took this opportunity since I have bought a tray of eggs.What you need:caramel200g castor sugar2 tbsp water2 tsp lemon juice100g hot waterPudding500g fresh milk4 eggs130g castor sugarMethod:Prepare a steamer of boiling water, 6 ramekins.To prepare the caramel, in a small pot, melt castor sugar with water and lemon juice.  DO NOT STIR.  Once it reached a light amber, very carefully add in the hot water (BE CAREFUL OF SPLATTER).  Stir until sugar is melted and liquefy and then starts to thickens slightly.
Spoon 2 tbsp of caramel and add into ramekin.  Set aside.In a mixing bowl, combine milk, eggs and sugar.  Whisk until sugar dissolved.Slowly fill the ramekin with milk mixture.  Cover with foil.Lower heat to med and steam egg mixture for 10 - 15 mins or until set.Let it cool completely before chilling.Serve cold.


Enjoy!
