I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
1. Mill brown sugar/gula melaka, Speed 10, 10 seconds. Note : If using gula melaka, please break up the gula melaka into ice-cube sizes before hand.
2. Add egg yolks and egg, mix speed 3 until the sugar has dissolved. Swipe the spatula at the base of the bowl to ensure all the sugar has dissolved.
3. Cook for 10 minutes, 90 deg, Speed 3.
4. Add coconut and essence/fresh knotted pandan leaves, cook for 30-45 minutes, 100 deg, speed 3. Leave MC out. Let the steam through.
Check the consistency of kaya. It should be a lovely, glossy thick and ultra smooth jam. If not thicken, add a 10 more minutes, 100deg, speed 3.
Tip
1. This is a very successful recipe IF you are using canned/tinned/packet Coconut Cream. In certain parts of Australia, it is impossible to get your hands on fresh coconut cream. By cooking it at 90 degrees initially, keeps the eggs intact without curdling it. This makes a beautiful kaya that doesn't require any further blending and it keeps well in the fridge for up to 3 weeks, although I doubt it will stay in the fridge for that long.
2. If you can't find "Kara", and have to use another... try to make sure that you drain the liquid stuff..and scope as much cream out. The less liquid the better. The more liquid, the longer you have to cook it for.
3. If using knotted pandan leaves, please do everything REVERSE. From step 2 onwards.
4. I have not had the opportunity to try it out with fresh coconut cream... please let me know via comments if it works!
5. Please feel free to reduce the sugar to 220gm.
6. Eat with toast, slathered with slabs of butter and hot coffee!

Comments
I have made this recipe multiple times and even double the recipe which gives about 3 jars (roughly about 1150ml).
Taste is brilliant and easy to control the consistency. Never had egg cuddle problem and I just use shop brand coconut cream (I am in the UK) and 200g granulated sugar. I also use Pandan juice (by blitzing frozen pandan leaves and squeeze the juice out).
Definitely recommend this recipe.
can I double up the ingredients for this recipe?
Beautiful kaya - flavour improved over time actually. High praise from my Malaysian born husband who really like it. Thanks for the recipe
Delicious - I too reduced the sugar as commented and used 150g brown sugar which I felt could probably be reduced further to 130g
So simple and turned out great! Thank you for all the helpful tips at the end
Thanks for sharing, it's yum...just in time for Fathers Day Present. My husband loves it! Big thanks
I'm making this for he second time today. My Malaysian hubby and his family love it.
ThaNk you.
Best kaya EVER !!!!
I I used coconut sugar and it was delicious! Really is so much better than store bought. Thank you!
This is a fantastic recipe. I used 180g coconut sugar and a whole 270g can of Ayam coconut cream. Not sure it will last until breakfast as we're eating it by the spoonful straight from the jar at the moment!
Excellent! The best Thermomix kaya recipe out there!
