Coconut flan is a very typical dessert in Costa Rica, it is very similar to the coconut pudding I made for Angola, the difference is that today we are using coconut milk and less quantity of grated coconut.
Ingredients:
- 250 grams condensed milk.
- 4 eggs.
- 80 grams grated coconut.
- 250 ml coconut milk.
- 250 ml whole milk.
- 100 grams of sugar for the caramel.
Method:
1- Put the eggs in a bowl and beat well.
2- Add coconut milk, whole milk, condensed milk , grated coconut and mix well.
3- Prepare the caramel by pouring the 100 grams of sugar into a saucepan and placing it over low heat. Gradually, it will start melting and browning. At that moment, you should remove it from the heat and pour it into the baking dish where you will make the flan
4- Pour the mixture into the mold that you have coated with caramel, put it in the microwave at maximum power for 10 minutes. I set it at 750 W power and had to cook it for 13 minutes. To make sure the flan is done, pierce it with a knife, and if it comes out clean, it's ready. It can also be made using a water bath in a regular oven at 350°C for 1 hour.
5- Let it stand overnight in the refrigerator, the next day unmold and serve cold. It's delicious and has a tropical flavor.
