Orange Marmalade (2)
Ingredients :
7 large oranges (1.3kg), washed and scrubbed clean
2 1/2 litres water
125ml lemon juice
1 kg granulated sugar
2 tbsp brandy

Method :
Put oranges and water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil then simmer uncovered over a gentle heat, for one to one and a half hours until the orange skin turns soft.
Remove oranges with a perforated ladle and leave aside to cool slightly. Slice off four sides of the orange leaving a neat square of orange flesh in the centre.
Cut the (sliced off) orange rind into very thin strips. Chop up the remaining orange flesh. Discard any seeds. Return the chopped orange and sliced rind to the saucepan. Add the lemon juice and bring to a boil over a moderate heat for 30 minutes until liquid is reduced by half.
Add sugar, stir over a gentle heat without boiling until sugar has dissolved completely. Bring to a boil, uncovered, over medium-high heat, stirring frequently (about 30 minutes) until marmalade jells. Stir in liqueur. Fill warm, sterilised jars or bottles to the brim with marmalade.

Tips :
(1) In choosing oranges for marmalade, always pick the big ones with a very thick skin.
(2) When boiling the oranges do not use high heat as the oranges will burst.
(3) To test if oranges are ready, use a satay stick to prick through the skin after boiling. If it can be pierced easily, the orange skin is soft enough.
(4) Brandy is used in this marmalade as a preservative. You can choose to use 2 tbsp brandy or 1 tbsp brandy and 1 tbsp cointreau.
Homemade Kaya
DSC04834 Homemade Jam Recipes
(Kaya is a jam made from coconut milk, duck or chicken eggs which are flavored by pandan leaf and sweetened with sugar. The spread originated in Southeast Asia, most likely Indonesia or Malaysia. This is reflected by its tropical ingredients santan and pandan leaf. Kaya is sweet and creamy, available as a golden brown or green colored spread depending on the amount of pandan and extent of caramelization of the sugar.)
Ingredients :
3 eggs
2 egg yolks
150g castor sugar
250ml thick coconut milk, from grated white of 2 coconuts
3–4 screwpine leaves (pandan leaves), knotted

Method :
Break eggs into a mixing bowl. Add in egg yolks and beat by hand until yolks and whites are well blended.
Add sugar and keep on stirring continuously to dissolve the sugar. Slowly add thick coconut milk and continue to beat until sugar is fully dissolved and coconut milk is well blended.
Strain mixture into a heatproof container. Place container into a double-boiler. Add screwpine leaves to the mixture and steam over gently boiling water, stirring with a wooden spoon for approximately 40–50 minutes non-stop or until mixture turns into a thick custard mixture. Discard the screwpine leaves. The mixture should now be golden brown. If not, fry one or two tablespoons sugar separately and stir in the caramel. Add this to the kaya to achieve the golden colour. Cool, then bottle the kaya in jam jars.
