Homemade Egg Toast

I had this egg toast at Old Town and it cost RM4.20++ per plate.



So, during one weekend, i was scratching head on what to eat for breakfast, then i found eggs, kaya, butter in my fridge and i got a loaf of gardenia bread. Then, Ta daa..



Presentation wise, not so good. But it's yummy.


Cost breakdown:
Gardenia bread: RM2.30/loaf (I think 1 loaf have 14 slices) So, 5 slices = RM0.80.
Kaya: RM2.50 / Bottle (Assume 10 scoop per bottle) So, 2 scoop = RM 0.50.
egg: RM0.40/pc. Only 2 pcs needed. So, RM0.80.
Butter: RM.7.65/pc. Use 1/5. So RM1.53.

Total cost for making 5 slices of egg toast (cut into half become 10 pcs): RM3.63.

Cheap huh?

Moreover, old town only give 4 pcs (2 slices).

Then...

Me (asking Mr Phua): How was it?
Mr Phua: Like that lo.
Me: Like that means how? Ho chiak or not.
Mr Phua: 5/10 lo. Too much butter, too oily.

Cilaka...
