8 servings

8
  • 1 can sweet corn (about 400 g / 14 oz, drained)
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (397 g / 14 oz)
  • 2 cans whole milk (measure with the empty condensed milk can)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 150 g (¾ cup) granulated sugar, for the caramel
  • 60 ml (¼ cup) water, for the caramel

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F) and set up a water bath.

    Blend the eggs with the drained corn until completely smooth.

  4. 4

    Pour in the milk and blend for a further five minutes until the mixture is perfectly even.

  5. 5

    Melt the sugar with the water in a saucepan until it turns amber, then coat the inside of a ring mould with it.

  6. 6

    Pour the batter into the mould, cover with foil and bake in the water bath for about 1 hour 15 minutes, until set.

  7. 7

    Cool, chill for at least 6 hours, then turn out onto a serving plate.

💡 Chef's Tip

Run a thin knife around the edge before unmoulding for a clean release. It keeps for 3 days in the fridge and tastes even better the next day.
