Brilio.net - Cassava or cassava is one of the food ingredients that is often processed by Indonesian people. This root vegetable can be cooked into various appetizing dishes. However, before being processed into various dishes, cassava needs to be boiled first so that the texture is soft and tender.
Unfortunately, boiling cassava is quite troublesome. Because of its hard texture, cassava inevitably has to be boiled for a long time. To make it more practical, some people deliberately boil cassava using a pressure cooker. Because it is specially designed, a pressure cooker can soften the texture of cassava in a short time.
But there's no need to worry if you don't have a pressure cooker at home, because you can boil cassava using a regular pan in a short time. All you have to do is add bay leaves to the cassava boiled water. Apart from adding flavor, the addition of this leaf is also thought to speed up the cassava softening process. So what if you don't have bay leaves in stock?
How to boil cassava so it is soft in 5 minutes.
As a solution, you can imitate what TikTok user @mimi_arayzka did. In his video upload, this netizen shows how to quickly boil cassava so that the results are soft and perfectly cooked. Even without the addition of bay leaves, the cassava produced still meets expectations, you know. In fact, he only boiled the cassava for a short time. Curious about how?
"Tips for boiling cassava to save gas," said the account owner, quoted by BrilioFood from TikTok @mimi_arayzka on Saturday (6/4).
The first step, peel the cassava skin to be processed. Once done, cut the cassava into pieces according to your taste. Then wash the cassava thoroughly under running water.
Put the cassava into the pan, then add water until it covers the entire surface. Put the pan on the stove, then turn on the stove to high heat and boil the cassava for a few moments.
"Boil for 5 minutes over high heat," continued the video owner.

After boiling for 5 minutes, turn off the stove and cover the pan. Let the cassava soak in the cooking water for 30 minutes. Even without being heated by a stove fire, cassava still undergoes a cooking process using hot steam in a pan.

Open the lid of the pan after leaving the cassava for 30 minutes. The texture of the cassava looks soft. However, if you want it to be more perfectly cooked, you can boil it again for 5 minutes. After boiling for 5 minutes, turn off the stove, cover the pan and let sit for 7 minutes.

Drain the cassava when it has been left for 7 minutes. As a result, the cassava is perfectly cooked and has a soft texture. Apart from being practical, boiling cassava using this method also saves gas, right?
