Method

  1. Chop the basil finely in the Tupperware SuperSonic Chopper Compact. Remove the blade, add the soft butter, sugar and lemon zest to the bowl, then mix with the Tupperware Slim Silicone Spatula.

  2. Pour just the popcorn kernels into the Tupperware WOW Popcorn Maker, resting on the glass plate at the base. Close the lid so its printed circles sit over the holes in the base, which lets steam escape.

  3. Microwave at full power (1000 W maximum) for around 3 minutes, listening for the pace of the pops: switch off once they slow to roughly one every 2 seconds. The exact time depends on your microwave.

  4. Shake the appliance, then flip it over with the lid still closed so any unpopped kernels escape through the holes in the base.

  5. Add the lemon and basil butter to the piping hot popcorn straight away, close the lid and shake gently for around 30 seconds, until melted. If lumps remain, microwave for 10 to 20 seconds at 600 W and shake once more.

  6. Serve straight away; leftovers can sit uncovered at room temperature but are best the same day.
