Pandan Agar Agar:

1. Add all ingredients to a medium sized pot and gently bring to the boil.
2. Stir to dissolve the sugar and immediately reduce the heat once it reaches a boil. Simmer for 5 mins then pour into a mould (I used a 7”x10” plastic container). Allow to sit at room temperature for half an hour then place in the fridge to set. This will take a few hours.
3. Once set, you can cut your agar agar into blocks and serve.

Coffee Agar Agar:

Serves 2

1. Add corn kernels and milk to a medium sized pot.
2. Blitz with a blender then add in condensed milk. Stir to mix then heat the mix on medium-high heat.
3. Drop the heat to low, just before the milk comes to the boil.
4. Simmer for about 20-30 mins then strain the pulp through a fine mesh sieve
   (the longer you simmer the corn, the more pronounced the corn flavour will be)

Serve warm or allow to cool and pour into a tall glass filled with ice for a refreshing chilled option. Optional: Add a shot of cold brew or espresso

1. Preheat oven to 170C.
2. Make the caramel by adding the sugar and water to a pan. Use a light coloured pan so that you can see the colour of your caramel develop. Heat on high and do not stir. Gently swirl the pan from time to time to disperse any dark spots forming. Your caramel is ready when it turns dark brown. Immediately pour into the bottom of your ramekins.

We used 12 x125mL capacity ramekins for this recipe.

3. Add eggs, egg yolks, condensed milk, vanilla and salt into a large bowl. Whisk until well combined. Set aside.
4. Heat fresh milk and coffee into a small pot to warm through (do not boil). Slowly pour this mix into your egg mix, whisking the egg mix as you pour. Pass this thin custard mix through a fine sieve into a pouring jug. Use a spoon to remove/pop any air bubbles.

Pour custard into the ramekins (not all the way to the top) and cover each ramekin with foil. Pierce holes in the foil to allow steam to escape.

5. Place prepared ramekins into a deep baking pan. Pour hot water into the baking pan until it reaches half way up the sides of your ramekins. Bake for 25-30mins or until the custard has just set. If unsure, insert a toothpick into the centre of one flan. If it comes out clean, the flan is cooked.
6. Take ramekins out of the baking pan and remove foil. Allow to cool on the bench top (about 30 mins) before moving them into the fridge. Allow your flans to set and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours before turning out.
7. To serve, run a knife around the edge of each flan before inverting onto a plate.
