Homemade Kaya

This is a recipe handed down to me by my mum-in-law more than a year ago and it's SK favourite spread. It takes alot of efford and therefore, we got to get it right. So after several sessions of major brainstorming...."do we beat the egg and sugar first, before adding the coconut milk?"..."Do you remember how your mum tied the pandan leaves into a knot?"...and so on...you get the gist...

Anyway, basically it's simple, we combined these into a bowl,



The eggs and pandan leaves . Nice looking right....until...



...Whoops! I see only sugar now :o



then in went the coconut milk...not a pretty sight...



Then I stirred for an hour until all sugar particle disolved



Transferred to the double boiler and stirred for another hour on high temperature



Finally, just simmered on low heat and stirred 5 mins every hour for the next 2-3 hours.

The final result ...




Tada!
