Next, prepare a frying pan filled with enough oil to fry the jengkol. Heat the oil over a low heat, then immediately add the jengkol without having to wait for the oil to be very hot.
Yup, this is the trick, jengkol that is put in at the beginning will make it quickly soft and perfectly cooked. The process of cooking over low heat also helps to soften the texture of jengkol, you know.
The owner of the TikTok account @ranjasarisun18 explained that if jengkol is cooked on a higher heat, usually the outside becomes hard and the inside is not fully cooked.
"Fry for 15 minutes until the jengkol is cooked by itself," added the owner of the TikTok account @ranjasarisun18, quoted by BrilioFood on Tuesday (20/8).
