Kaya
We are really fussy when it comes to Kaya. So far, none of the brands on the market could satisfy us. Finally, I decided to make my own. Never thought the ingredients are that few - eggs, sugar and coconut milk. However, the constant stirring is the test of patience as you need to wait for it to turn to a darker shade and gooey, usually within an hour. However, the end result was not bad and best of all, no preservatives and fresh! Seems like I’ve been cooking a lot eh? It doesn’t really take that much of my time, just preparing meal a day and the occasional trials of various recipes and most importantly, it’s fun and fulfilling - mel.
i think if you put the pandan leave should be more delicious!

hmm… it looked delicious enough. being a sweet tooth myself, i remember i used to use my finger to dig out home cooked ‘kaya’ and ate them just like that, cause they are not as sweet as the ones in the market.
mm…miss those days…

The kaya that I made is kinda sweet but it’s ok when spread on bread. Yeah, it taste nice just by its own though! Not too sure what ingredients are used in the ones sold in the market coz I find the sweetness quite artificial.
