Why Choose Kettle Cooking?
Cooking in a kettle is not only quick and convenient, but it’s also perfect for small spaces like hostels or offices. With the iBell kettle’s auto cut-off feature, you can sauté, boil, and cook effortlessly without worrying about overheating.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 2 tsp olive oil (or butter for richer flavor)
- 1 tsp finely chopped garlic
- 1 tbsp chopped spring onion whites (or regular onions)
- 2 tbsp finely chopped carrots (rich in Vitamin A)
- 2 finely chopped green beans (high in fiber)
- 2 tbsp finely chopped cabbage
- 30-40 sweet corn kernels (the star ingredient!)
- 3 cups of water (or vegetable/chicken stock)
- Salt to taste
- 1 heaped tbsp cornflour + ¼ cup water (for slurry)
- Pepper (for spice)
- Spring onion greens (for garnish)
Step-by-Step Cooking Method:
- Heat the Kettle: Turn on the iBell kettle and add 2 tsp of olive oil. Sauté 1 tsp of chopped garlic until fragrant.
- Sauté the Veggies: Toss in 1 tbsp spring onion whites, followed by 2 tbsp carrots and 2 green beans. Continue stirring despite the kettle’s cut-off light—it will resume shortly.
- Add Cabbage & Corn: Mix in 2 tbsp chopped cabbage and 30-40 sweet corn kernels. Sauté for 2 minutes.
- Pour the Liquid: Add 3 cups of water, salt to taste, and bring the soup to a rolling boil.
- Prepare the Slurry: Combine 1 tbsp cornflour with ¼ cup water and stir it into the soup to thicken it.
- Final Touches: Once thickened, season with pepper and garnish with spring onion greens.
Pro Tips:
- Replace cornflour with blended corn paste for a natural thickener.
