FLAN FROM ARGENTINA 
1 c. sugar
1/4 c. boiling water

In a heavy non-ferrous pan, heat sugar over low heat, stirring with long handled metal spoon until melted and straw colored. Remove from heat and very slowly stir in boiling water. Stir until smooth. Pour into shallow round baking dish, 10 inches.

CUSTARD:

1 c. sweetened condensed milk
1 c. milk
4 eggs

Mix all ingredients thoroughly and pour over cooled caramelized sugar. Pour slowly so caramelized sugar stays on bottom. Place in a water bath. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until set. Remove from oven and let cool. Chill in refrigerator. Loosen edges and turn out onto flat dish to serve. Top with fresh strawberries.
