Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup popcorn kernels
  • 2 tablespoons butter (melted (optional))
  • Salt to taste

Instruction

  • In a large heavy bottomed pot over medium heat, add oil and 3 popcorn kernels. Wait for kernels to pop (may take a few minutes as the oil needs to heat up). Place a large serving bowl nearby.
  • Once your three kernels have popped, add the remaining kernels. Cover and gently shake the pot to evenly distribute the kernels and cover them with oil. If your lid does not have a venting hole, tip it slightly so that the steam can be released. If your pot starts overflowing, dump some into a serving bowl and allow the rest to cook.
  • Continue cooking until the popping slows to about one pop every 3-4 seconds. When done, transfer immediately to the serving bowl.
  • Toss with butter if desired. Salt to taste.
