BRAZILIAN COCONUT FLAN WITH PLUM SAUCE (MANJAR BRANCO)



Brazilian Coconut Flan with Plum Sauce (Manjar Branco) image

Provided by Olivia's Cuisine

Time 12h20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

- 200ml (1 cup) coconut milk
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweet condensed milk
- 1 liter (4 1/2 cups) whole milk
14 ounces (2 cups) prunes (dried plums)
1 cup sugar
1 cup red wine (substitute for water if desired)
1 cinnamon stick
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

Steps:

  • Combine the coconut milk and cornstarch in a large pot, whisking until the cornstarch is dissolved. Then, add the remaining ingredients and bring it to the stove, over medium low heat. Cook, stirring constantly (yeah, sorry!) until thickened and you start to see the bottom of the pan when you stir. That will probably take anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes!
  • Run a bundt pan (or mini bundt pans for individual versions) under cold water, so it's wet when you pour the cream. That will help you release the flan later on.
  • Transfer the cream to the wet pan and let it cool at room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
  • Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan. Cook over medium low heat until it reduces and thickens into syrup consistency, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool in the fridge.
  • When ready to serve, turn the bundt pan into a serving platter to unmold the flan. You shouldn't have any problems if you wet your pan before pouring the cream, but you can run a butter knife along the edges to be safe.
  • You can spoon some of the sauce over the flan or serve it white with the sauce on the side!
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

- Use high-quality coconut milk for the best flavor. You can make your coconut milk at home if you have fresh coconut. - If you don't have whole eggs, you can use 4 egg yolks and 2 egg whites. - For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet chocolate. - Be careful not to overcook the flan. It should be set but still have a slight jiggle in the center. - Let the flan cool completely before serving. This will help it to set properly. - Serve the flan with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or ice cream.

Conclusion:

Quindão is a delicious and easy-to-make Brazilian dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with a few simple ingredients and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are a fan of coconut or not, you are sure to love this classic Brazilian dessert.
