This is our favourite way of using The Pandan Kaya, and is how we serve Kaya Toast, one of our best-selling items at our weekly food stall in Upmarket, Brick Lane, London.

READ THESE TIPS FIRST

• The Bread: You want the fluffiest, softest white-bread known to man. It’s much easier to find this type of bread in Asia, but in London we find M&S Soft White Farmhouse to be a good option.

• The Butter: Go for a salted, high-quality butter. Keep the butter cold for this recipe.

• The Eggs: Back home people love dipping their Kaya Toast into a bowl of perfectly cooked soft-boiled eggs. You want the yolk to be runny.

• The Kaya: Make sure to spread a good portion of Kaya on the toast, don’t want to see any skimping here!

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

Cook the eggs

• Fill a pot with enough water to cover the eggs when you place them in later. Get the water to a full boil.

• Turn off the heat and move the pot off the heated hob. Slowly lower the eggs into the pot (using a ladle helps).

• Close the lid of the pot and gently cook the eggs. Set a timer for 7 minutes.

• When the time is up, cool down the eggs as quickly as possible to stop the cooking. You can do this by giving the eggs an ice-bath or by running a cold tap of water over the eggs until they feel room-temperature.

Prepare the bread

• Get two slices of bread. Toast lightly, you want some dark marks from the toaster but still have the bread be slightly bendable.

Dress the toast

• Spread a generous amount of Kaya on both sides of the toast, covering most of the bread.

• Cut out a thick, rectangular piece of cold butter straight from the fridge. Place this in the middle of one of the pieces of toast.

• Put both pieces of toast together to form a sandwich. Cut-off the long-edges of the crust from the toast and cut the sandwich in half through the middle.

Serve

• Crack two eggs that you’ve previously prepared into a small bowl. Add 1 tsp of light soy sauce and a couple taps of white pepper.

• Grab one half of the Kaya Toast, dip into and swirl the egg mixture you’ve created and enjoy!
