These days, we all are running short of time in our lives. We travel a lot and have to stay a lot of places. Sometimes, we have to eat outside foods like hotels and restaurants which might good in taste but not as healthy as our home made foods. But we can’t have homemade foods everywhere, so with the help of La-Forte’s electric multipurpose kettle, a person can get homemade food at any place with very simple process. Let’s cook healthy and delicious curried couscous with help of La-Forte’s electric multipurpose kettle.

- Add more water to the kettle if needed and heat any tinned food you are adding. Or place any additional ingredients that should be warm into ziplock bags and heat in the kettle .

- Keep adding more until you like the flavor.
- Add your heated extra ingredients if using any.

- Personally, I’m a fan of green curry paste, but you can use red or whatever type you prefer!
- Substitute the curry paste and coconut milk for your favorite pre-made sauce, such as masala or pesto.
- Substitute the curry paste and coconut milk for curry powder and/or any other dried spices you like.
