Guest guest Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 Hi all, I made this a few nights ago. It was quite nice but we all agreed that the veggies needed a little more flavour. I also had a little pastry left over so I made some small individual flans for my son for his school lunches. They were actually better cold. The sauce set nice and solid making them really portable. I have made this recipe again (all individual flans) today as my son is going on a school camp and needs something for his luches while there. I made a few changes to the recipe. To the pastry I added a little onion powder, garlic powder, a pinch of salt and about a tablespoon of nutritional yeast. I cooked the pastry for about 20 minutes instead of the 15 minutes in the recipe. For the veggies I halved the amount of potatoes, added 1 capsicum (bell pepper) and a can of corn kernels. I also added a little chicken-style bouillon powder to the cooking water. Both times I didn't use gomasia, instead using nutritional yeast and some chicken-style bouillon powder to flavour the sauce. I baked the finished flans for 20 minutes. These seem to have much more flavour than the first time. I think this recipe can be made with any veggies that you fancy, as long as they aren't too mushy.
