kaya/ siri kaya



All along I thought Kaya was hard to make. listening to other people say its hard made me think so. The moral of the story is don't believe everything you hear. :)

Ingredients
Coconut Cream 400ml
Sugar 400g
eggs 300ml (6x50g eggs)
Firstly caramelize the sugar in a pot or wok. then pour in the coconut cream (be careful liquid will spit) and bring it to boil till all the caramel is desolved. Set a side to slightly cool.

break the eggs in a heatproof bowl or a metal bowl. yes there is only 5 eggs in the picture its because I used a bigger size eggs.

using a whisk mix the eggs and pour in about a ladle full of the coconut mixture and mix well. then pour in the leftover coconut mixture in a steady stream into the egg mixture while mixing. (you don't want to have scramble eggs :))

Then over a double boiler on a medium to low fire and continue to whisk till it coats the back of a spoon. ( this is just like making Custard sauce)
it should look like this, remember it will slightly thicken up again when cooled.

this how you indulge in this lovely spread!!! toast a slice of bread, slice cold butter and the lovely spread!!! the trick to this is if you could get the toasted bread as thin as possible :)
hope you get to enjoy this spread!! :)
