- Yields:
-
2 1/2 Qts
- Serves:
- 1-3
ingredients
- 3 tablespoons popcorn
- oil, in a spray
- salt
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (optional)
directions
- Place popcorn in 2 1/2 Quart Pyrex or other microwaveable bowl with a microwave lid. It's best to have lid vented, popcorn expands by violent steam pressure so let it out.
- Microwave on hi for total of 3 minutes regardless if it's all popped or not.
- Remove popped corn and place in another bowl to add oil and salt.
- Microwave remaining un-popped kernals for another 2 minutes or til all is popped.
- Spray popcorn sparingly with extra virgin olive oil - I use refillable Mr. Misto.
- Salt to taste.
- Be careful! Steam is way hotter that boiling water - the bowl is hotter than a SOB! I use my hand to remove popcorn from the pyrex bowl but would be safer with a spoon or spatula.

This has become my go to snack. I make it a couple times a week and thought I had reviewed it long ago. It is quick and easy and tastes great with a little melted butter and some sea salt sprinkled on top. I found that a colander on top of the bowl works perfectly to keep the popcorn from going all over and provides enough room for the exploded kernels.
