Sweet microwave popcorn

Spread the love

Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 25 g popcorn

Instructions

Working time approx. 2 minutes; Total time approx. 2 minutes

without fat

Mix the three ingredients in a small, flat-bottomed microwave container (suitable for cooking!), ensuring all the corn kernels are covered with the sugar and water. Place the lid loosely over the container. Microwave at 800W for 3-4 minutes, until barely any kernels are popping. Pour the popcorn from the container into a bowl and allow it to cool and evaporate. The popcorn will be crispy and not too sweet, and, without fat, slightly lower in calories than usual. If you prefer a more caramelized flavor, first caramelize the sugar and water in the microwave, then add the corn, quickly(!) put the lid on, and return it to the microwave for a short time. Be careful not to burn the sugar! Important: Please only use microwave-safe containers.
