Make the kaya spread by caramelizing golden caster sugar and coconut palm sugar over medium low heat until melted.

Add coconut milk and mix until the sugar melts again.

Add pandan leaves and a quarter teaspoon of salt, mixing well.

Take a little of the mixture and pour it into the egg yolks to temper them.

Slowly pour the egg yolks into the mixture over medium low heat, mixing for 4 to 5 minutes until thick.

Let the kaya cool completely before assembling the sandwich.

Toast slices of white bread until golden brown.

Spread a generous amount of kaya on one slice of toast and butter on the other.

Assemble the sandwich and slice it in the middle.

Boil a pot of water, turn off the heat, add the eggs, and let them sit for 12 minutes without heat.

Transfer the eggs to cool water before serving with the kaya toast, soy sauce, and ground white pepper.
