Ingredients:

Red Onion Salsa:
1/2 small Red onion, very, finely diced
1/2 bunch Flatleaf parsley, leaves only,, coarsely chopped
2 Plum tomatoes,, coarsely chopped
1 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp Olive oil
2 tbsp Cider vinegar
1 tsp Soy sauce
1 1/2 cup Cooked black beans
2 large Eggs
1 large Egg yolk
1 cup Milk
1 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
3 dash Tabasco sauce
3 tbsp Unsalted butter,, melted
5 oz Log of goat cheese
1/2 bunch Watercress, tough stems removed,, for garnish

Instructions:

Combine all the ingredients for the salsa in a small glass bowl and
toss together well. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours. Preheat
the oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor, pulse 1 cup of the
black bean until pureed, scraping down the bowl as necessary. In a
medium mixing bowl, combine the pureed beans with the whole eggs,
yolk, milk, salt, pepper, and Tabasco. Mix together well until only
lumps of bean skin are showing. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of whole
cooked beans and mix together gently until evenly blended. Brush 6
1/2cup ramekins with the melted butter. Pour very hot water to a
depth of 1 inch in a roasting pan large enough to hold all the
ramekins. Place the dishes in the roasting pan and fill them with the
flan mixture, making sure to add an equal amount of whole beans to
each cup. Bake for 35 minutes, or until firm in the center. Remove
from the oven and let cool to room temperature.

Using a length of fishing line or heavy sewing thread held tightly
between two hands, slice the goat cheese into 6 equal disks and set
aside at room temperature. When ready to serve, preheat a broiler to
mediumhigh heat. Run a small knife carefully around the top outside
edge of each flan and place the ramekins on a baking sheet which will
fit under the broiler. Turn the ramekins over and tap the bottom
side of each ramekin to release the flans. Shake them out onto the
baking sheet and place a disk of goat cheese on top of each. Place
the baking sheet under the broiler and toast until the goat cheese
begins to bubble. With a flatended metal spatula, transfer a flan to
each dinner plate and top with a spoonful of the salsa. Place a few
sprigs of watercress around the base of each flan and serve
immediately.
