Como fazer Mexican Flan Baked Caramel Custard

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly until it melts and turns a rich, dark amber color. Be careful not to burn it!
Carefully remove from heat and immediately pour the caramel into a 4 1/2-cup (1L) metal ring mold. Swirl gently to coat the bottom and sides evenly.
In a large bowl, whisk 6 large eggs until light and frothy.
Gradually whisk in 1 (240ml) cup whole milk, 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, and the zest of 1 orange.
Carefully place the caramel-coated ring mold inside a larger roasting pan.
Pour the egg mixture into the ring mold. Pour the hottest tap water possible into the roasting pan, reaching about 1 inch (2.5cm) up the sides of the ring mold.
Bake in a preheated 325°F (160°C) oven for approximately 50-60 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Baking time may vary depending on your oven.
Remove from the oven and let the flan cool completely on a wire rack. Then, refrigerate for at least 3 1/2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flan to set completely.
To unmold, run a thin knife or spatula around the edges of the flan to loosen it from the mold.
Place a serving plate upside down over the mold. Invert the mold carefully onto the plate, allowing the flan to slide out.
Spoon any remaining caramel from the mold over the top of the flan.
Garnish with fresh fruit slices (such as mango, pineapple, or berries) and serve immediately. Enjoy!
