From most recent book. Haven't tried A traditional Spanish dessert, flan is a creamy custard baked with a sugar based caramel, which creates a toasty tasting sweet sauce. In this version, sugar free maple syrup is drizzled on top to create a similar effect. The maple taste is the perfect complement to toasted silvered almonds.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons slivered almonds
8 ounces fat-free evaporated milk, canned
1/4 cup skim milk
2 tablespoons skim milk
1/2 cup egg substitute
1 1/2 tablespoons granular sugar substitute
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons sugar-free maple syrup

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 275. Spread almonds on baking sheet and toast, stirring once, until lightly golden brown, 8-10 minutes. Transfer almonds to a cutting board to cool. Roughly chop and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine evaporated milk and fat free milk wand heat over medium-low heat until scalded but not boiling. Remove from heat and set aside.

Tips:

  • For the Best Marinade: Use a flavorful blend of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. Let the beef marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, to infuse it with flavor.
  • Achieve a Tender and Juicy Beef: Cook the beef over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until it is browned and tender. Overcooking can make the beef tough and dry.
  • Enhance the Sauce with Aromatics: Sauté ginger, garlic, and onion in a pan until fragrant. This aromatic base will add depth and complexity to the sauce.
  • Use High-Quality Maple Syrup: Choose a dark and robust maple syrup for a rich and flavorful sauce. Avoid using pancake syrup, as it is too thin and sweet.
  • Balance the Flavors: Adjust the amount of brown sugar and vinegar to suit your taste preferences. You can also add a touch of Sriracha or red pepper flakes for a subtle spicy kick.
  • Serve with Accompaniments: Pair the maple almond beef with steamed rice, roasted vegetables, or a crisp salad for a complete and satisfying meal.

Conclusion:

The maple almond beef is an exceptional dish that combines the sweet and savory flavors of maple syrup, soy sauce, and almonds.
