Easy Spanish Flan

Ingredients

 * 1 egg
 * 1 Small Glass of milk
 * 1 Desert Spoon of caramel or 1 desert spoon of sugar + 1 desert spoon of water
 * 2 Desert Spoon of sugar

Directions

 * 1) Put caramel into the bottom of a metal flan mold. If premade caramel is not available, mix 1 spoonful of sugar and 1 spoonful of water in the bottom of a metal flan mold.  Stir over high heat until they turn brown.
 * 2) Beat the egg with 2 spoonfuls of sugar
 * 3) Add milk and beat well
 * 4) Pour the mixture into the flan mold on top of the caramel
 * 5) Place the mold in a pan of simmering water. Make sure water is shallower than mold so none gets into the flan.
 * 6) Cook until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean
