Mango Flan

Ingredients:

1 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
3 cups ripe mango, peeled and cubed
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
1 can (12 oz.) evaporated milk
5 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. salt

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
In a medium saucepan, combine sugar and water. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves and turns golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. Quickly pour caramelized sugar into a 9-inch round baking dish, swirling to coat bottom and sides. Set aside to cool.
In a blender, combine mango, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until smooth and pour mixture over caramelized sugar in baking dish.
Place baking dish in a larger roasting pan and fill roasting pan with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Remove baking dish from roasting pan and let cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
To serve, carefully run a knife around edges of flan to loosen. Invert onto a large serving platter and serve chilled.

Verdict:

This mango flan is a creamy and delicious dessert that combines the sweetness of ripe mangoes with the rich flavor of flan. The caramelized sugar adds a perfect touch of bitterness that balances the overall sweetness of the dessert.
