Preparing Kaja’s jam at home is not complicated, but first you have to go shopping to get the necessary ingredients, i.e. Coconut milk (1/4 cup), egg (1 piece), sugar (40-50g), salt (a little).
Start by sticking the egg into a bowl, then pour in sugar and a little salt. Mix the ingredients to create a uniform consistency mass. Add coconut milk and mix again.
Boil water in a saucepan, reduce a little fire, and set a dish with a ready mass on the kaja jam over boiling water. In this way, cook the ingredients for an hour, stirring every 10 minutes.
When the paste is ready, put it in a jar, cool and put in the fridge. You can also cook jam directly in a pot on low heat, stirring often to prevent burning.
