- Sieve the mixture into another saucepan and stir the mixture with a whisk as the liquid drips into the pan.

- Place the roasting tray in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Carefully shake them afterward to see if they have set.

- Throw out the water and discard the towel from the tray and place the cups back in. Place the tray in the refrigerator for a few hours.
- Wait until the flans have thoroughly chilled. Take a knife and carefully go around the edges of each flan.
- Remove the flans from the cups by turning them over on plates and lightly press down on them to ease out the flan.
