[makeit] Flan caramel - something creamy, smooth, and melted in your mouth.

I have tried so many recipes and finally I found one that fits the most for my family. Moreover, it just takes up to 15 minutes to make and about 15 minutes to steam.
I have used this recipe for many times. I thought I should share this recipe. This flan caramel just melted immediately in your mouth with creamy touch. I hope you can get the same one and enjoy it too.

1 ...................................egg
250ml ...........................milk
70g ...............................sugar

Caramel
40g................................sugar
2tbsp.............................water
1/2tsp............................lemon/lime juice

Make caramel:
Put sugar and water in a saucepan, place in medium heat and cook sugar to melt. Turn down the heat to low and stir evenly until it becomes golden brown. Turn off the heat and put lemon/lime juice into the saucepan and stir. Pour the caramel to the jars quickly (don't need to spread the caramel. When you steam it, it will melt and spread itself evenly)

Make the curated:
Heat the milk in microwave for 2 minutes.
In the mean time, whisk gently the egg, egg yolks, and sugar together.
Pour the hot milk slowly to the egg mixture and continue to whisk the mixture. Try not to create air bubble.
Pour the mixture to the jar.
Steam it in medium low heat for about 15 minutes or until the center of the jar get firm or until the toothpick insert into the center come out clean.
Refrigerate until cold as you wish.
Serve better with glass of tea, enjoy!

Happy Tuesday everyone!
