I have a Lékué microwave popcorn bowl which I use to pop my corn (and it doubles as a serving bowl too).
There are quite a few different microwave popcorn bowls available in the shops. 1) In the microwave in a special popcorn bowl But if you leave it cooking for longer than it needs it can catch fire and believe me, trying to get the smoke smell and stains out of a microwave isn’t the easiest (I sadly know from experience after getting side-tracked recently whilst making popcorn by a tricky game of hide and seek!). As long as you get it off the heat/turn off the microwave as soon as the popping stops you’ll have no problem. Popcorn has a very low water content which makes it quite flammable. Whichever of these methods you choose it’s very important that you don’t leave your corn unattended while it’s popping. If you’re popping your corn on the hob then you’ll need 1 tsp of oil too (any flavourless oil such as groundnut or vegetable). Personally I find that popcorn pops a bit better in the microwave (it can get a bit too dry on the hob) so I’d recommend using 1, 2 or 3 below if you can.įor all of these you’ll need 80g of popping corn for four people (it really doesn’t look like a lot when you first put it in, but it really does grow as it pops). Homemade popcorn is unbelievably simple to make and there’s a few different ways to do it, so hopefully you’ll find a way that works for you. It’s so simple to make and much cheaper than buying it ready-made. I always make a picnic-style tea which we eat together in the lounge and a big bowl of homemade sweet popcorn for pudding. One big part of family film night is the food. We subscribe to both Netflix and Amazon Prime and so try to choose things on there if we can. But as they were got a little older, it’s something we look forward to every week. It’s something I’d attempted to start when the boys were younger but they never seemed to have a long enough attention span. We have a tradition in our house – Sunday film night.
