Leche Asada

A peruvian custard eaten for dessert

  • 14oz (396g) Sweetened Condensed Milk

  • 12oz (378g) Evaporated Milk

  • 1tsp (4g) Vanilla

  • 8 Eggs

  • 1C (200g) Sugar (divided)

  • ¼C (59g) Water

  • Preheat oven to 400°.

  • In a small bowl, beat the eggs until evenly colored.

  • In a medium bowl, mix the condensed milk, evaporated milk, vanilla, eggs, and ½C (100g) of the sugar.

  • In a small saucepan, add the water and the rest of the sugar.

  • Heat on low until sugar is completely dissolved and mixture becomes syrupy and slightly tan.

  • Pour the syrup mixture into a small (yet deep) pyrex baking dish. Pour the milk mixture on top.

  • Place the small baking dish inside a larger pyrex baking dish. Add water to the larger dish until water level comes halfway up the smaller dish. Cover whole thing with foil.
