    The perfection of soup always brings blessings to the dishes served. Kikil soup with thick spiced sauce is the first kikil dish prepared in my kitchen.




    Kikil is a natural processed product made from cow or buffalo leather. This thickness of cowhide is processed and cleaned to remove hair, then boiled until soft. This long process produces delicious final products for various delicious dining menu dishes. Well, what a coincidence. Yesterday when I want to the market I bought kikil, in the city which is in the same direction as where I work there is a large tax, there are all the foodstuffs available. Including gravel, a food raw material that is rarely found in my village. So playing taxes like this makes it a big shopping moment for me. The price of kikil is relatively cheaper than meat, but did you know that there are still many people who don't like cowhide so the selling price is minimal. Well, because I love gravel, just by looking at it I can think of ideas for what I will make from this raw material.

    Today I want to make something new in the kitchen, I will make a soup dish from kikil. Well, usually kikil is often used in curry, but this time I want to make kikil differently, namely soup. This time I made the soup with a mixture of yellow spiced sauce. And to strengthen the taste, I added a little coconut milk to make a perfect savory soup.
