Melt ½ cup of the sugar over low heat until the sugar forms a golden syrup. Stir constantly to prevent burning. 2. Pour immediately into a shallow cake pan (8x8x2) or a 9-inch pie plate, turning and rolling pan from side to side to coat evenly. Set aside. 3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. 4.

Turn into the caramel-coated pan. Set pan into a larger pan of hot water. 7. Bake for 1 ¼ hours, or until a knife inserted into the center of the filling comes out clean. Cool and chill. 8. To serve, run a spatula around the sides of the pan. Turn flan out onto a serving plate. 9. Cut into squares or wedges. Combine the whipped cream with the remaining sugar and ginger. Top flan with the whipped cream mixture.
