Spanish Crema Catalana#Foodieextravaganza

Spanish Crema Catalana is a very easy recipe and uses rice flour  instead of corn flour, which, in my opinion, gives the creama catalana a substantially lighter feeling in the mouth. It's a perfect dessert, you will love it.  

Since I do not have a blow torch, broiled the top in oven for just 4 -5 minutes.

Ingredients
500 Ml Whole milk
5 Tablespoons Sugar
5 Egg yolks
1 Whole Orange peel
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla essence
2 Tablespoons Rice Flour
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
Method 
Use a little of milk to dissolve the rice flour and make sure there’s no lumps left.

Put the rest of the milk, the sugar and the egg yolks in the cooking pot you are going to use and  whisk  the ingredients together. Add the rice flour milk and whisk  again to form a smooth liquid. Add the orange peel and the vanilla essence and put the pot on the stove to simmer. Stir continuously (to avoid lumps never stop stirring) with a  spoon until  it comes to a boiling point.  Keep stirring till it thickens a little.  Switch off the flame and continue stirring for a minute more. Remove the orange peel

pour into individual  pots. Let it cool and once tempered cover the pots with cling film  and keep in the fridge for, at least 6-8 hours.

Burn the sugar before serving the “crema” , I spread a tablespoon of brown sugar on top of each and broil it in a preheated oven at 200°C for 4 -5 minutes and it's done.

Serve and enjoy this beautiful dessert!! You will love it's gluten free too.
