I Recently went to Malaysia and I Tried this stuff and I Became SO OBSESSED! The smell & Taste is so Good! Thank you for sharing the revipe
We love n can eat everyday ...
My wife just made using this recipe. Taste soooo good! No preservatives, no colouring unlike factory made ones.
Hi, thank you for the lovely recipe. I made this yesterday with 200 ml kara coconut cream mixed with 80ml water. I reduced the sugar to 225g instead of 250g, was just nice for me. Like other users, the consistency of the kaya got pretty lumpy even though I was careful to ensure the water didn't touch the base of the pot. However, just a quick blend was required to remove the lumps. After blending, I thickened it up again as it was on the watery side. Very pleased with the results!
Thank you so much for sharing this. This is the best instruction so far that I see. Very sincere recipe. I just made it yesterday. Taste really2 good. I think the addition of caramel at the end took out the eggy smell from Kaya.
Thanks for trying, glad that you like it.

Thanks for the recipe. Your method is traditional. I reduce sugar to 150g, caramel sugar remained the same.
Better than bought outside which contain alot if flour.
Great 👍.
Finally found the best recipe for kaya jam!
I tried other recipe but it didn't meet my expectation.
Sometimes it got lumpy, just use my handblender and problem solved.
Thank you so much for the recipe ❤️
Glad you liked it.
Oh I have a question.. If I double the recipe, the cooking time will be 2hours?
Yes, if the amount is larger, I will slow cook longer, may be 1 hr 45mins.
@@MyKitchen101en thank you so much!
Thanks for this simple recipe. I tried it today and it was a successful first attempt. Delicious pandan flavoured kaya.
Love this video and recipe, I have made it several times, it's wonderful, Thank you!
Thanks.
I just tried it out. It was way too sweet but nevertheless was delicious. Within half an hour, i notice it was sort of cook. I added 3 tablespoon of pandan water n a bit of green colouring to make the colour stands out. Thanks for the tips about blending it in a blender if it comes out lumpy. My was lumpy within 25 mins n i took it out n blend it n it became like your texture.
The kaya is already cooked before slow-cooking for 1 hour. Slow-cooking for 1 hour is to enhance the fragrance, cook at the lowest heat and make sure the bottom of the bowl filled with kaya doesn't touch the hot water at the bottom, don't remove the lid during this 1 hour.
@@MyKitchen101en Thanks for your recipe. It is a treasure to keep. It turned out so successful besides the sweetness. Nevertheless, my mum loves it n i will be making it again once this is finish.
Thank you for very clear info !
Hope everyone love our kaya

roygana6
I will try this.i have alot of pandan leave at my backyard.tq for sharing
Thank you for this amazing recipe. Instructions are clear and easy to follow. My family loves it. I'll make some more soon :)
Glad that you like it. Thanks for your support.
Just like mum's 😍💕🙋👏👍
Thanks for sharing. I like Pandan Kaya. Just wonder is it necessary to make and add the caramel?
It is optional, just for the colour and the taste.
@MyKitchen101en today I made it, I adjusted the sugar portion to 160gram, 200ml kara coconut milk + 80ml water, turn out well but stil too sweet for me. I didn't control the heat temperature well so it became lumpy. No choice I used blender to blend til smooth. Thanks for sharing, it's nice 👍
simple recipe and ingredients. thanks! nice soothing music too
Making a big batch of this now, 4x of the recipe, and my kitchen smells soooo amazing! I’m sure my friends and I will love the end result 💕 how long can we keep this by the way?
Fill the kaya into clean jars, keep refrigerated when it is completely cooled. To consume, take out the desired portion using a clean and dry spoon and return to fridge immediately. Best serve within 1 month. I used to keep longer, it still can be eaten but the taste is less fragrant.
Hi there! Can I use gula melaka instead? If I do, how much should I use? Thank you for this lovely recipe! I tried it once and it was delicious!!
You may use the same amount.
the best from all, simple and nice kaya
Now i have found an easier way to make the smooth kaya version. Thank you very much.
I add more pandan juice and cut down 50g sugar and I still find it sweet. Mine is is darker green from more pandan juice used and lumpy. I didn't add Caramel as I did not find it had eggy smell since I added more pandan juice. Is it possible to reduce sugar further?
Yes, should be ok.
Try molasses or raw sugar or brown sugar or used pure fresh sugar cane juice or jaggery / real pure palm sugar or even raw 🍯... Natural non bleached sugar is okay ... Strain after first boil before steaming for an hour to remove lump ... All the best
i gotta make this
tks for the great video on making kaya. one of the best we have seen so far. simple and accurate in reflecting from the traditional way of making. Here are some of my thoughts
Traditionally duck eggs are use or a combination of both duck and chicken depending on the type of texture you want to achieve. It will be interesting to experiment by adding lecithin as a binding agent for those who like to cut down on eggs.
It is crucial to cook the coconut custard sufficiently long enough to pasteurized the custard which in many video that have been omitted.
Thanks for sharing your thought.
Hello! Can you share how long we keep the kaya for? Looks super good ! Gonna try it soon. Thanks!!
Fill the kaya into clean jars, keep refrigerated when it is completely cooled. To consume, take out the desired portion using a clean and dry spoon and return to fridge immediately. I usually finish within 1 month.
In indonesia we call it " Selai Kaya" 'selai means Jam
Thanks for sharing this recipe. How long can I keep the kaya as there is no preservative?
Fill the kaya into clean jars, keep refrigerated when it is completely cooled. To consume, take out the desired portion using a clean and dry spoon and return to fridge immediately. I usually finish within 1 month. I used to keep longer, it won't turn bad, but just the taste is less fragrant.
U using 280ml thick coconut milk.
If I'm using thick coconut milk carton brand like Kara or Ayam Brand. Shld I use 280ml also ? Cos if for small box I think it's about 200 ml for brand like Kara..
Yes, if not enough coconut milk, the texture will be rough. Fresh thick coconut milk without additives yields best result.
Hi when you mentioned double-boiler method to cook kaya, meaning the water inside the pot reach the kaya bowl's bottom? Or more like the steam method?
The bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water, just use the steam to cook the kaya.
@@MyKitchen101en thank you so much my dear.
Hi, how many pandan leaves did you blend to get that amount of pandan ? And did you add any water? Thanks :)
Yes, blend pandan leaves with water, not remember how many pieces, may be 2-3.
Is the inner pot inside the boiling water or just above it? I have tried using Kara coconut cream extract but the kaya is lumpy. Can advise?
Above hot water, don't let the bottom of the pot touching the hot water. The kaya will be lumpy if It is too hot.
Hello, May i know type of thick coconut milk you used in the recipe? As i used the one i bought from wet market calls *Santan*, it can't make the kaya thicker. Thanks
For best result, I always extract coconut milk from fresh grated coconut, choose mature coconut for more santan. You may refer this video: mykitchen101en.com/how-to-extract-thick-coconut-milk-from-fresh-grated-coconut/
@@MyKitchen101en Thanks. And, apologize for late response...
Hi if I don’t have pandan juice , instead what can I put?
I live in mauritius and there are no psndan trees.
Please help
Pandan juice is just for fragrant and colour, you can still make the kaya without it, but the eggy flavour will be stronger that some might not like. Alternatively, you may make caramel kaya, you may refer another video for caramel kaya: mykitchen101en.com/kuih-pulut-tekanpulut-tai-tai-pressed-glutinous-rice-caramel-kaya/
Try Adding vanilla to take out eggy smell and yes the caramel helps
Can i use this recipe as a filling to my kaya buns?? Will the texture alter after the baking process??
Use this recipe mykitchen101en.com/kaya-pao-kaya-chinese-steamed-bun/
Not sure what went wrong when I mixed on top of the double boiler, my mixture would break apart. Did I overcooked the kaya?
The bottom of the bowl with kaya mixture should not touch the hot water at the bottom.
@@MyKitchen101en Thank you for the reply 😊 I'll try to make it again
The taste is great but may i know why mine become quite dry just like separated part not solid? Tks need your guidance pls
The kaya will become curdle if it is too hot. The bottom of the bowl with kaya mixture shouldn’t touch the hot water at the bottom.

Don't need to cool the kaya first before putting into the bottles ?
I fill them into glass jars and let them cool completely before keeping refrigerated. You may let them cool first if storing in plastic containers.
I just made this but mine got lumpy and didn't look nice at all. I don't know why. Glad the taste is better than the store bought.

Hi, I only have thick coconut cream. Do you know if I can still use this, and if so, should I dilute it with water? Thank you :)
Thick coconut cream should be ok, you may try.
May be can,but the aroma is different than you use coconut milk.
Is that okay to put white eggs ?
Do you mean the "egg whites"? This recipe use whole eggs, i.e. both egg whites and egg yolks.

Hi thanks so much for all your Kato recipes well I m a Singaporean living in USA I miss my kaya spread so I want to make some but I don't have pandan flavour or pandan leaves so what can I substitute with in order to achieve thu s kaya spread. Thanks again
Pandan is just for the fragrance, it won't affect the texture. You may do Caramel Kaya if you don't have pandan, you may refer another recipe: mykitchen101en.com/kuih-pulut-tekanpulut-tai-tai-pressed-glutinous-rice-caramel-kaya/
Lucy, you can get frozen pandan leaves in most if not all the Asian grocery supermarkets in the USA. They are frozen pandan leaves from Thailand. I use them all the time and they are as good as the fresh ones.
I thought the deep color was from using palm sugar, and not caramel
May I know if I'm using grace b egg, how many eggs that I need?
Net weight of grade A egg (without shell) is about 60 g, for 5 eggs just measure out 300 g (5 x 60 g).
Thank you🥰

wow nice...pls ans mee.. where the pandan laef is available
Pandan leaf is quite common in South East Asia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandanus_amaryllifolius
You may make the kaya without it, it is just for fragrant and colour, or you may make the caramel version kaya in another recipe: mykitchen101en.com/kuih-pulut-tekanpulut-tai-tai-pressed-glutinous-rice-caramel-kaya/

tank u I will try it
MyKitchen101en I don't know how to make kaya jam without pandan laef pls u upload video
Can I steam without the cloth?
Water from condensation will drip into the kaya if you didn't tie the lid with cloth, unless you use a bamboo lid.
Thks
Why does it coagulate after i cover the mixture?
It is too hot. Turn to the lowest heat, the bottom of the bowl with kaya mixture shouldn’t touch the hot water at the bottom.

How come after stirring, my kaya is still watery and not like yours turn into paste
Use medium heat first, when the mixture starts to thicken, turn to medium-low heat and cook until thickened.
@@MyKitchen101en mine too is watery. The mixture didn’t thicken after an hour 😢
If it is not thick enough after 1 hour, then stir over medium-low heat again for a while, it will thicken.

Can I not put the caramel?
Yes.
May I know what's the reason to add caramel?
For the colour and flavor, it is optional.
@@MyKitchen101en thank you
Possible to add palm sugar syrup instead?
Yes, caramel is just to give some brown colour.
MyKitchen101en Thank you for your reply 😊 May I ask how much to add for the palm sugar syrup?
You may try mixing 3 tbsps. of sugar with 1 tbsp. of hot water until dissolved, then sieve into the kaya, this is the idea shared by a young Facebook fan and her kaya turned out great.
Great! I'll give it a try. Thanks again 😁
yummy!!! makes me hungry😆
