- Recipe is created for
  TM 5
  
  If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
  For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
  
  Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Recipe's preparation

To begin

1. Have 6 ramekins ready (I used teacups)

2. Pour soy milk into TM bowl and sprinkle agar agar powder on the surface. leave to soak for 10-15 min

For the Caramel

Put the sugar into a small saucepan over low-medium heat and stir until melted and golden. Divide amongst ramekins

For the Custard

1.After the soy milk and agar agar have been sitting for 10-15 min, turn TM to 5 min, 98 deg, speed 2 to gently boil mixture. At the end of time, check to see the agar agar has completely dissolved, if not, cook in further 1 min increments, checking after each increment to see if dissolved (5 min was about right for me)

2. Add tofu, vanilla, sugar and salt into TM bowl. Blitz for 10s, speed 8 and continue with 5s increments at speed 8 until a very smooth consistency is achieved.

Put it together..

- Divide the custard amongst the 6 ramekins, pouring over the top of the caramel.

- Cover with plastic wrap and put in fridge for a min of 1 1/2 hrs (or until custard has set)

- To turn out, dip the bottom on the ramekins into hot water for 15s before turning out onto plate.

Enjoy!!

Tip

This recipe was adapted from vegan caramel flan from www.peta.org

it can be used to make 3 larger flans but it would need longer to set in the fridge

Some of the caramel turns to toffee at the bottom of the ramekin, but this can be cracked and added to the dish - yum!
