Field 'id' doesn't have a default value for UUID Field in Laravel

I have just started learning laravel. I'm familiar with CakePHP.

I used to use UUID field as primary key in my database and in CakePHP, it was quite simple to just change data type of column field to CHAR(36) and it works well.

In Laravel, I have modified users migration to change increments to uuid field and set to primary key

CreateUserTable

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

class CreateUsersTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->uuid('id');
            $table->primary('id');
            $table->string('name');
            $table->string('email')->unique();
            $table->string('password');
            $table->rememberToken();
            $table->timestamps();
        });

        Schema::table('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->string('first_name')->nullable();
            $table->string('last_name')->nullable();
            $table->uuid('role_id');
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('users');
    }
}

But, when I save a new record, it gives error as

Illuminate\Database\QueryException thrown with message
"SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1364 Field 'id' doesn't have a default value 
(SQL: insert into `users` (`name`, `email`, `password`, `updated_at`, `created_at`) 
values (Anuj, anuj@example.com, password_hash, date-time, date-time))"
