Where to find ingredients
You can find these staples at local markets and supermarkets in Tanzania. Choose high-quality eggs and full-fat fresh milk for the best results. If you cannot source specific imported brands, any high-quality local condensed milk is suitable.
Preparation method
- Preheat your oven to 180°C for 10 minutes.
- In a blender, process the eggs, condensed milk, and milk for approximately 3 minutes until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
- In a ring-shaped cake pan, prepare the caramel. Add the sugar and place over low heat, stirring occasionally until it melts into a golden amber syrup.
- Carefully swirl the syrup to coat the bottom and inner sides of the pan.
- Pour the blended mixture into the caramelized pan.
- Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the custard feels firm to the touch.
- Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely before placing it in the refrigerator.
- Chill for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight, to ensure it sets perfectly.
- To unmold, gently run a knife along the edges and carefully invert the pan onto a serving plate.
