{{RecipeIngredients
| 75 g popping corn
| 2 tablespoons sunflower [[oil]]
}}
===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| On a high heat, heat the [[oil]] in a large pan
| Add '''just a few''' kernels of [[popping corn]] and close the lid
| When they pop, your oil is ready, tip the rest of the [[popping corn]] into the oil and quickly close the lid
| Holding the lid with [[oven gloves]], shimmy the pan so the corn will be covered with the [[oil]]
| When all of the activity has ceased, remove the lid and pour into a large bowl
| At this point you can sprinkle with [[salt]] and eat, or move to the next stage of your recipe
}}
===Chef's notes===
Covering the pan with a [[spatter guard]] instead of a lid will allow the moisture to escape which makes for a far better pop corn without making too much mess.
===Variations===

Go to our '''[[popcorn recipes]]''' page!

Use [[garlic olive oil]] for a lightly flavoured snack. Be careful not to burn [[olive oil]], it has a lower burning point that sunflower oil

===Suppliers===

Not all supermarkets seem to sell popping corn. If you are having a job locating it, most health food shops sell it. Our local Waitrose also stocks popping corn in various sized packets.
