Kaya Toast with Soft-Boiled Eggs

Ingredients

• •1 cup coconut milk
• •6 eggs
• •3/4 cup granulated sugar
• •1 tsp pandan extract
• •8 slices white sandwich bread
• •4 tbsp unsalted butter, chilled
• •2 tsp dark soy sauce
• •1/4 tsp white pepper

Directions

1. 1Whisk coconut milk, two eggs, sugar, and pandan extract in a heatproof bowl until smooth.
2. 2Set the bowl over gently simmering water and cook 15–18 minutes, stirring constantly, until the kaya becomes thick and glossy.
3. 3Toast the bread until crisp and golden, then spread four slices generously with warm kaya.
4. 4Lay thin slabs of cold butter over the kaya and close with the remaining toast.
5. 5Lower the remaining four eggs into barely simmering water for 6 minutes, then crack them into small bowls.
6. 6Season the soft eggs with dark soy and white pepper and serve beside the toast for dipping.

💡 Use cold butter against warm kaya; the contrast between crisp toast, cool butter, and fragrant custard is part of the classic eating experience.
