Popcorn in a microwave without any fat or sugar! Choose your favourite toppings for a low-calorie snack.

By Sophie Whitbread

Ingredients

35g/1¼oz popcorn kernels

For the toppings (optional)

pinch cumin
pinch chilli powder
pinch salt

Method

Put the popcorn kernels in a lidded, microwaveable pot and cover with the lid. Alternatively, put them in a microwavable bowl and place a microwave-safe plate on top, ensuring a little air can escape while cooking.
Microwave on high until the popping sound stops, this should take between 1–3 minutes, depending on your microwave. Carefully remove, sprinkle over your toppings, if using, and enjoy.
