Homemade Kaya

Salut,

First things first, I begin with the word of the day, KAYA. Kaya is a Malay word means rich but at the same time this word also means coconut jam. I've been thinking about kaya for the last few months but I couldn't find one that sell in the shop. How I want my bread and kaya for breakfast until I decided to try out kaya recipe from internet and make my homemade kaya at home.

It feels good now and it satisfied the craving I'd been feeling since many months. From now on, I can make this kaya at home anytime as the recipe was great yet calls for simple ingredients. I also like to bake my own white bread and I've been making quite a lot of breads and buns lately.




HOMEMADE KAYA

Ingredients;

3 large eggs
250g sugar
350ml coconut milk

METHOD;

- Mix 150g sugar with coconut milk, whisk until sugar dissolved.
- Add in eggs and stir to combined. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, heat the sugar until it melts and turn brown.
- Pour the caramel sugar into egg mixture and continue to stirring until the caramel sugar dissolved.
- Meanwhile, prepare double boiler on the stove over low heat.
- Place the mixture bowl in the top of double boiler.
- Stir the mixture occasionally, every 2 or 3 minute to avoid the burning.
- It took me about an hours to cook until I achieve the desired thickness.
- Cool the kaya completely before transfer in a jar.
- Keep kaya in the fridge and it can last for a couple of week.

Enjoy the kaya with bread!
