Kaya~Coconut Jam
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- Kaya or Coconut Jam is a popular and delicious breakfast toast spread in Malaysia and Singapore. A perfect Kaya has to be smooth from hours of stirring. I have preciously shared some short cut recipe, but the traditional recipe and cooking method are the best. For this recipe, I opted for duck eggs for richer tasting Kaya. I have reduced the amount sugar and make some caramel instead. This recipe will yield thick, smooth and glossy jam.
Ingredients
2 Cups (6 to 7) Large Duck Eggs or 8 to 10 Chicken Eggs
2 Cups Coconut Milk
1 1/4 Cup of Cane Sugar
4 Pandan Leaves, washed, dried & knotted
For full recipe, please check out my blog: www.seasaltwith... or at www.theflavours...
Hi, I try your recipe and the results are great. May I know if it is normal for bubbles to form when cooling as well as when kept in fridge?
I'm not too sure, just give it a stir with a whisk?
marvelous! thanks
Thanks and you're most welcome.
Thanks for awsome recepie.. can i use gula melaka to replace the caramel ? And i want to know about mesurement..
mohamad haris bin johari You're welcome. Gula Melaka will alter the Kaya taste though...might still taste good, but I'm not sure the exact amount of sugar you need. You can always use less and adjust as you go. Good luck!
Thanks for reply.. now i'm on my way to cook that kaya.. hope succes. :D
I keep stirring but ended up cant get a smooth kaya paste. How can i make it smoother and creamy?
+candy can123 Maybe the heat/water on the bottom was too high. You can also blend the kaya, but the texture will be slightly diff.
Flavours Of Asia 10q for your kind advise. Maybe i shall be more patient and use the lowest heat and stir it. I definitely try again. 😃
thanks for your great tutorial and recipe, i found out, using palm sugar, makes the jam not so smooth, so im using blender, and add a bit milk, coz mine is to dry a bit, im using 100gr palm sugar and it is still very sweet and too dark, im in malaysia use palm sugar called gula merah on the packaging, next time will do 70gr palm sugar only, mine come more dark than yours coz the difference of the palm sugar type maybe
i have try using it with bisquit it come fit my taste the sweetness, if just try it without anything it will be very sweet, but the palm sugar im using is to strong and make the egg very fast cooked, i think 50gr palm sugar+50gr white sugar will do
+vivi cutes Palm sugar altered the natural taste of Kaya, my opinion ;-)
Hi woman, how are you? Well, I'm bad BECAUSE THE SUGAR STICKED TO THE PAN.
Wow it's really nice💟💟💟
the philippine version, in my province of quezon where coconut industry is the main source of income, we never use eggs,,just coconut cream and brown sugar with pili nut or 100 per cent cocoa..
Thanks for the comment and info :-)
Yes but Kaya taste so good. Coconut jam is just too strong for me.
Thank you for this recipe! 😍 May I know how long can I keep this in the fridge?
Airtight, not stirred, not reopened a few weeks if mostly sugar and coconut milk as preservatives ... Once opened, consumed within a week (?) ... Have to ask mum, usually all gone lol 😉😆
I would start with caramelized sugar and beat with eggs in machine ... Reserve some caramelized sugar at end to whip to glossy ... But yet to try it out...
Berapa biji telur ,
Check the description box for recipe. Thanks.
Kenapa rasa amis telur,apakah kurang lama memasaknya?
hi, i tried but my kaya turned out to be like scramble egg. It is totally not like the smooth texture you have got. Which made me pretty upset. Is there anything wrong in the process that I can fine tune?
Cecilia Aw If the Kaya turned "scrambled egg" like, the most common problem is the pot is too hot. If it starts to curdle too quickly, add more water to the pan. Make sure you use a heavy-bottom pot. Do not whisk, just stir with a wooden spoon constantly. It should work.
Cecilia Aw Also, make sure the heat is at the lowest. Thanks.
Flavours Of Asia thank you so much. Will try again. In another words, the water can't be boiling as well right?
Cecilia Aw Yes, the water should be just simmering. Give it a go again, be patience:-) Just remember, the first 30 minutes is very crucial, keep stirring!
Flavours Of Asia thank you so much for the advise, will attempt it again :)
What's the quantity of the ingredients for eggs sugar and milk ?????
Check out the description box foe detailed recipe. Thanks,
You already upload 1 video of this aren't u ? Which recipe u refer better ?
+Ninie Tran Yes, I did. I prefer this one, with duck eggs but the cooking time is longer.
Oh I love this kaya. Will definitely try it once I find some fresh pandan leaves in the US.
How long can it last if it is not refrigerated?
During the Winter, I leave them on the counter for about 4 days, Summer max 2 days.
can we substitute the sugar with something else?
Unfortunately, this recipe require sugar. Hence, I don't make them often and the amount of sugar in this recipe been reduced significantly but still yummy!
Can I use this as kaya bun filling? Will the baking process will alter the consistency of the jam?
Hi there ,why using duck eggs instead of chicken eggs?
Ok 👌fine. I got it from others comments. More richers. Thanks.
hi,may i ask is that ok i use coconut sugar instead of cane sugar,and another question,how long can i keep in the refrigerator thanks 😃
hi, did u use the egg whites too? wouldn't the egg whites seperate and cook itself into stiff hard eggy parts inside the jam?!
can you use gula melaka instead of caramelizing sugar??
You can, but it will alter the original taste of Kaya. Thanks.
I have tried the recipie, but the colour was not as transparent as yours, just like a brown egg paste.
Boleh guna gula melaka tak, colournya boleh cantik tak tq
Wow i love this. I love this malaysian jam very much :)
ferdynand2402 Great! I hope you will give it a try. Thanks for the comment.

Whole eggs. Thanks.

hello!
i know i'm very late to ask this. But is it possible to make kaya jam without needed to make the caramelized sugar? Thankyou!
Yes, you can. Good luck :-)
i tried it but it not comes smooth as like jam...the egg is separately cook idont know y...it form lumbs ...
Thanks for the feedback. There are few issues with regards to the above; 1) You have to keep stirring the jam. 2) Use a heavy-bottom pot. 3)Use the lowest temp/fire setting & keep topping up with water if it's too hot. Hope these help. Thanks.
I have only pandan leaves powder, how many gr should I use? And for how long will the jam last in the fridge?
I've never come across Pandan leaves powder...I suppose you can add 1/2 tsp for the fragrant. Hope this help and good luck!
Hi, my kaya does not stick but it have many lumps. What is the problem? Is there any solution??
The heat is too high..use lowest heat setting and top up with water. (make sure you use a thick bottom pan/pot and keep stirring. You can always use a blender to smooth it out. Thanks.
Hey i made this yesterday following one of your older recipes on your blog. The kaya turned out nice but the flavor wasnt too strong and the colour is pale green. Im not sure what i did wrong the consistency was very thick and kaya likethats why i took it off the stove, didnt want to burn it. i did increase the temperature towards the end tho cause it wasnt thickening up. oh and i also did it on a double boiler. i think all up it took me about 40 mins or so to finish it too
neetudolly The older recipe/video that I hv shared used Turbidano raw sugar to enhanced the flavor. Did you use that sugar? The color won't turned out as dark compare to this traditional version. The latter has caramel in it. To make Kaya, the temperature has to be the lowest, if the Kaya starts to thicken/curdle too quickly, add additional water to the double boiler. I would suggest you try this one out and I'm sure you will like it. Anyway, thanks for the feedback and comment. :-)
I failed once doing this, taste are so not good and the eggs dried after 1 hour stirring idk why I followed the recipe and introductions now I wasted 8 eggs
Most likely the heat was too high..use lowest setting & top up with cold water, if it's too hot. Hope this help.
Hi, can I substitute the cane sugar with white or brown sugar? or any other type of sugar?
Only cane/white sugar.
hi ya I just want to say thank you soo much for sharing all your recipes in here. I love almost every recipe u share, very interesting! Besides your videos now got some music and ingredients are well listed in the descriptions box. Well done and keep it up your good job. Thank you!
alyssa ng Thanks for the support and kind comments. xx
malaysian economy is getting worse ..so please do it yourself at home...😃😃😃..thanks for the recipie
Ya, the prices of cooking oil went up by 40 %!!!
Actually, this is one of those things that are cheaper to buy :)
Hello there, love your recipe! I was wondering, does this taste better using duck eggs? Does the flavor differ at all when using chicken eggs? Thanks.
+Nadya Valentina Thanks for the compliments. I do find duck eggs makes richer Kaya.
Hi! How often should I stir the kaya? Every 10 minutes? And if i make only half, will it take only half the time to cook as well?
I stir them frequently..maybe every 1 or 2 minutes. The cooking time should be less, if you only make half.
Flavours Of Asia alright thanks so much! Will try this recipe soon :)
I have 2 questions.
You have another Kaya recipe. Is this one better than your other recipe?
Does this jam need to be stirred constantly for 1 1/2 hours or occasionally? If it's constantly for that amount of time then, WOW! That is a huge task for that long a time!
Anyway, I definitely want to try this and the eggs with soy sauce.
Thanks for sharing this recipe.
Cheryl S. I like both but if I have time then I'll prefer make this one cos it's richer and sort of traditional style. Yes, you have to stir them constantly.
i know this is old what if without pandan? does the taste still same?
The taste is the same , just the fragrance. Thanks.
Can we use chicken eggs to substitute the duck eggs ?.
Yes, you can.
Is it available in Saudi
do u seriously need 30 mins to make the kaya ?
+hui gin Ang Yup!
haha the music is so cute ! Yuummm ! I was a little intimidated to make Malaysian food at home but thanks to your easy to follow steps and good videos, I'll be making this soon, thank you Chef !! :D
Eunice Yoshida Thanks for the comment. No worries, Malaysian food are not that difficult to make. This Kaya spread is easy to make, just time consuming.
Yeah. Because It's easily accessible in M'sia but since I'm in overseas now I will need some home comfort food :( Thanks again :)
many time i have try it but in the end not to smooty ,,how i can make smooty like in the vidio??
+وحدة نين You have to stir frequently on lowest heat, and do not let the water boil. Add cold water to the pan, if needed. Also, you can blend the Kaya for a few seconds.
Ok..i will try it,,thanks
Saya sering makan ini di aceh, terim kasih sudah share cara membuatnya
Sama-sama :-)
hi, if i doubled up the recipe, will the time of cooking increases as well?
I have a big family.
Dixie Pixie Yes, the cooking time will increase to double too.
Flavours Of Asia ok thnks
hi I would like to share thank you.. 😉
Sure, will be lovely you if link the "share" to my channel. Thanks.
Is the leaves opcional?
It's better to have the leaf. Thanks.
I want to make for the first time with two eggs plz give me the recepit with two eggs thk
I don't have the recipe with 2 eggs.(I'm assuming chicken eggs) You can do the math example; 2 cups divided by 10 chicken eggs times 2 eggs? So, 1/4 cup of milk. You can adjust sugar accordingly. I'm not sure it will turn out okay though. You can try it, use a stainless bowl instead of pot. Thanks.
Thk I will try and let's u know
Hi I don't have the padane leaves I can add the favour of pandan at the end
Wow it's was perfect thk u

+Kavesha Kavesh23 Yes, you can. You'll need ard 8 to 10 chicken eggs.
Thank u😀😀😀
woahhh, i love thiss 🌹👍
up till now I find how to make Kaya from you .Thank you
You're most welcome :-)
Could chicken eggs be used instead? If so, same amount?
C CD Yes, you can use chicken egg. You'll need 2 cups, probably 8 to 10 chicken eggs.
Flavours Of Asia Great. Thanks.
Can I use coconut milk and coconut cream instead sugar?
This recipe won't work without sugar. Thanks.
I think coconut cream would work because it has a lot of sugar. Just fyi coconut cream isn't available outside the americas.
What is it the difference if I use chicken eggs? Btw thanks alot for the video
Duck eggs are richer. You can use chicken eggs too.
My mother blends the pandan leaves into a paste instead before adding it to the pot. Using caramel and duck eggs is interesting though. I'll combine your recipe with hers and see how it goes :)
You meant Pandan flavour Kaya? As in green color, like this one...ua-cam.com/video/zBRXBvLaQRE/v-deo.html
Can Yuo tell me about the weight of each ingredients?
