Microwave Popcorn

  • 3
  • 2 mins
  • 5 mins

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unpopped popcorn
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • opt. 1 T sugar

Preparation

Step 1

In a cup or small bowl, mix together the unpopped popcorn and oil. Pour the coated corn into a brown paper lunch sack, and sprinkle in the salt and sugar (if using). Fold the top of the bag over twice to seal in the ingredients.

Cook in the microwave at full power for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, or until you hear pauses of about 2 seconds between pops. Carefully open the bag to avoid steam, and pour into a serving bowl.
