My Pinoy Version Kaya Toast



Had quite an appetizing meal (late lunch) almost close to 'merienda' time. Gave an old Singapore-style meal with a Pinoy twist. Ya Kun Kaya toast (using pandesal as my Philippine version) with semi-soft boiled egg. Yummy! Here are some of the shots I took while eating my lunch. Too bad, I'm just using a cheap camera phone (no SLRs for me) but hey, I'm just enjoying my food.

The ingredients: Ya Kun Kaya jam (a present from a friend who went home for a brief visit from Singapore, thanks to her), butter and pandesal (the pandesal is not the one from my favorite baker but i'm hungry so I don't mind).

Before toasting the pandesal, I spread the Kaya jam and topped it with butter.




The semi-soft boiled egg with about half a teaspoon of soy sauce to taste (this is what they do in Singapore instead of sprinkling with salt and pepper). For the Pinoy version, I used Datu Puti soy sauce. Couldn't get more Pinoy than that. A 'datu' with my egg, why not?? The egg was supposed to be really soft-boiled and a bit saucy and soggy but somehow I overcooked it. Or subconsciously perhaps I just enjoy hard eggs more (ooops!there goes the double meaning.wink!).


Here was my meal before it went down to my tummy.

And to cap it off for dessert I had fried bananas and voila! just finished my weekend lunch without rice for a change.
