Method

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

  2. Put the popcorn kernels in the Tupperware WOW Popcorn Maker, glass plate at the bottom, with no oil or salt. Close the lid so the circles printed on it line up with the holes in the base; this lets the steam out.

  3. Microwave on full power (1000 W maximum) for about 3 minutes. Stop once the pops are about 2 seconds apart; depending on your microwave this may take slightly more or less than 3 minutes.

  4. Shake the popcorn, then turn the popcorn maker upside down with the lid on so any unpopped kernels fall out through the holes in the base.

  5. Straight away, add the lemon and basil butter to the hot popcorn, close the lid and shake gently for about 30 seconds until the butter has melted. If some is still solid, microwave for 10 to 20 seconds at 600 W and shake again.

  6. Serve at once. Leftovers can stand uncovered at room temperature, but are best eaten the same day.
