The one to order

Crispy kaya toast with soft-boiled eggs and kopi

Kaya toast with soft-boiled eggs

1 hr (mostly stirring the kaya) · 4 sets (and a jar of kaya). Singapore's breakfast: thin crisp toast sandwiching coconut-pandan jam (kaya) and a slab of cold butter, with two barely set eggs seasoned with soy and white pepper, and strong kopi.
