If you boil it in a regular pan, it's not uncommon for people to spend up to 1 to 3 hours, you know. So, to make it faster, you can boil the gravel using a pressure cooker. However, if you don't have a pressure cooker at home, don't worry because there is one trick from netizens on the Mom Ani YouTube account that you can copy at home.
"30 minutes is easy, guys. It doesn't take hours or presto," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube mom ani on Saturday (3/2).
First, heat the water in a pan until it boils using medium stove heat. So that the fishy smell of the kikil disappears, you can add 5 to 7 bay leaves to the boiled water. When it's boiling, immediately plunge the gravel pieces into it. Cover the pan and boil for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, turn off the stove and open the lid of the pan to stir the gravel. Netizen familiarly known as Ani said that the kikil, which had only been boiled for 15 minutes, was still half cooked. So, to make it softer, cover the pan again and let the kikil sit in hot water without turning on the stove at all for 30 to 45 minutes.

After letting it rest, turn the stove heat back on to medium and continue the boiling process for 15 minutes. Then, turn off the heat on the stove and remove the kikil to cook it into any dish you like.
"(After the boiling process) in the second 15 minutes, the texture is already soft," he said.
The owner of the YouTube account Mom Ani also said that if you want to make a kikil dish into soup, you should use freshly boiled water, because the previous boiled water still contains dirt and remaining blood from the kikil.
