i love this coconut spread more than other type of fruit jam, as it is rich of coconut and egg fragrance.This kaya spread can just simply add into any pastry to have the amazingly good taste. In America, there are so hard to find my hometown food, almost everything, i have to made it from scratch.
I have the pandan leafs in my patio, get ready anytime for me to cook the south east asian dishes, so yay, today i made this super yummy coconut spread with my bread machine, it has saved me a lot of time of standing beside the hot stove keep stirring the pot. While waiting, i can watch my favorite TV show, after 90 minutes, the coconut spread is ready to serve. Sound really simple right?
