Little Vanilla Custards with Caramel
This unmoulding classic pairs a smooth vanilla custard with a caramel base that turns into a sauce once turned out. The Micro Vap's steam cooking replaces the traditional water bath: eight ramekins set together in the microwave with a smooth, even texture.

Ingredients
Method
Bring the milk to the boil in the Tupperware Chef Series saucepan 1 l.
In the Tupperware measuring jug 2 l, whisk the eggs with the sugar and vanilla using the flexible whisk. Stir in the hot milk in a thin stream, whisking constantly, then skim off as much foam as you can with a skimmer.
Pour 400 ml (1 2/3 cups) cold water into the reservoir of the Tupperware Micro Vap' steamer, set the lower colander on top and stand the ramekins in it.
Spoon 5 ml (1 tsp) caramel syrup into the base of each ramekin, then pour in the custard mixture.
Cover and start the cooking cycle for 11 minutes at 600 W. Take the ramekins out as soon as the time is up, without letting them stand.
Leave to cool, then chill for at least 2 hours. Loosen the edges with a thin silicone spatula before turning out and serve well chilled.
