Total Time: 1 hr 45 mins Preparation Time: 45 mins Cook Time: 1 hr

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 4 egg whites, beaten until frothy

Recipe

  • 1 in a small heavy bottomed saucepan, stir sugar and lime juice together until well mixed.
  • 2 if the sugar is well coated this will stop the caramel from crystallising while you are making it.
  • 3 with a wooden spoon, stir over medium heat until the sugar melts and turns a dark caramel colour.
  • 4 pour the hot caramel into an 8 inch fround flat baking dish and telt the dish backwards and forwards quickly so that the caramel coats the bottom evenly.

  • 10 chill several hours or overnight.
