Preparing the Caramel

Make the Caramel
In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring gently until the sugar dissolves. Once dissolved, stop stirring and allow it to boil until it turns a deep amber color, about 8-10 minutes. Be careful not to burn it.

Coat the Flan Mold
Quickly pour the caramel into the bottom of a flan mold or individual ramekins, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden.
