Ingredients

4servings

45 g (1 1/2 oz) pecorino (or Parmesan)
60 g (1/3 cup) popcorn kernels
1/4 tsp (1 ml) salt
1 small bunch chives, finely snipped

Method

Run the pecorino through the fine grater of the Tupperware Grate 'n Store.
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.
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.
Shake the appliance, then flip it over with the lid still closed so any unpopped kernels escape through the holes in the base.
As soon as it comes out, scatter the grated pecorino and salt over the piping hot popcorn, close the lid again and shake for about 20 seconds. Lift the lid off and wait 1 minute before continuing.
Scatter over the chives and serve right away, without shaking again.
