Method

  1. Blend the basil, garlic and Parmesan into a fine paste in the Tupperware SuperSonic Chopper Compact, then work in the olive oil, salt and pepper, blending again until smooth.

  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. Coat the hot popcorn with the pesto right away, close the lid and shake for around 30 seconds.

  6. Serve warm; if any is left, leave it uncovered at room temperature and finish it that same day.
