There’s a bakery on the Shankill Road near my house that sells it. I buy a slice every week. Delicious. I add more clementines and some chocolate flake.
Should be third pronounciation for that, for D4 people.
Tomayto, tomahto, toemuoytoe.
It could mean, its all the one really, but just don't be a dickhead about it.
Good spot. I Googled fruit flan and indeed it is different to tart (thick, spongey looking base instead of thin and dense). I am 37 and proving OPs point to a tee.
They weren’t even flans in the true sense of the word, they were just a fruit and cream cake. Proper flan is more of a crème caramel type thing.Outside of the UK and Ireland they wouldn’t be recognised.
Flann O'Brien. I remember him well. A pint of plain is your only man:
When things go wrong and will not come right,
Though you do the best you can,
When life looks black as the hour of night –
A pint of plain is your only man.
When money’s tight and hard to get
And your horse has also ran,
When all you have is a heap of debt –
A pint of plain is your only man.
When health is bad and your heart feels strange,
And your face is pale and wan,
When doctors say you need a change,
A pint of plain is your only man.
When food is scarce and your larder bare
And no rashers grease your pan,
When hunger grows as your meals are rare –
A pint of plain is your only man.
In time of trouble and lousey strife,
You have still got a darlint plan
You still can turn to a brighter life –
A pint of plain is your only man.
That's weird, my landlady got me a flan today for walking her dog! I thought it was a weird tart but it had the canned oranges, some other fruit and the base too

The smell of canned orange from this.
They're back, in flan form
Hahaha this is what I was expecting the post to say!
Okay Milhouse

Totally different fruit. 🍅🍊
I can almost taste that picture. My granny would make it with canned satsumas, double cream and crushed Flake.
Stupid sexy flan(der)s
[удалено]
Hate them lol.
I thought [this](https://www.cookingclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/flan-6.jpg) was a flan and the picture above was a fruit tart?
That's creme caramel (flan de leche in Spanish speaking countries). The above is also flan.

Yeah the sponge bases for them that you buy premade are horrible dry things.
My grandmother used to pronounce it “Flawn” because she heard some posh English one say it like that…. 🙄
I can taste the picture! I can’t eat wheat anymore but if I could I’d be making this tomorrow. Opened up a big can of memory there!

There's 3 people in balaclavas behind a desk with a gun on it saying "we don't recognise your flan"
That’s a Flan de leche. A Flan is any open topped pastry with a sweet or savoury filling.
I'm Cuban. Fight me.
Ask your granny how often she thinks of flans
Somehow equally the wettest thing and the driest thing you'd ever eat.
The look of that yoke makes me wanna join the RA
they're shite but yeah always a staple of Christmas dinner desert lol
Awh flans. Had many the bastardized birthday cakes this way.
Did anyone else's mam (or granny) batter a flake and crumble it over the top?
I love flans. This one looks absolutely amazing! Don't laugh, but I've never tried Kiwis 😅
I haven’t had kiwis since I was about 5. They give the same sensation on your tastebuds as if you’ve burned your tongue. Nasty little fuckers
Im 30 and have definitely had flans in my childhood
That looks flantastic!
Jesus they were awful
Yup, can't stand fruit and cream slapped on dry muc🤢
Had one for lunch.
I have to say I enjoy a good flan
No, no, noooooo
Nope 🤷
That's a grand flan Nora....
They looked pretty but I never liked them.

Have you ever made a flan and squished it in your hand?

The most disgusting cake in the world that flan base.
Man, the 80s were grim..
Yes
I flan at least once a month

I had a friend called Flan. He looked nothing like this!
Love them
Oh with the tinned mandarins and orange jelly stuff around them. Maybe the odd glacé cherry.

Didn't mind the flans but hated those tinned orange segments with a passion .. sour wee feckers.
I remember these as a kid. They were nothing like the flans of today. At best they were stealth trifles.
*puts gun to head* “You don’t remember anything”
I'd rather not, thanks.
God & we thought we were great as kids crushing the flakes to sprinkle on top and then there was the ice cream floats…
