Trying DR. OETKER Romanian dessert / Cremă de zahăr ars

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a saucepan, combine sugar and water over medium heat.

Cook until the sugar dissolves and turns golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.

Quickly pour the caramel into a baking dish, tilting to coat the bottom evenly.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and salt until well combined.

Pour the egg mixture over the caramel in the baking dish.

Place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan and fill the pan with hot water halfway up the sides of the dish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until set and a knife inserted comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature.

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

To serve, invert the dish onto a plate so the caramel is on top.
