Best Movie Night Snack Hurricane Popcorn Recipe

Make the Popcorn

1. Heat the oil in a sauté pan or saucepan on medium-high heat.
2. Place 2 or 3 popcorn kernels into the oil, and cover the pan. Wait for the popcorn kernels to pop. (It may take a few minutes)
3. Once the kernels pop, add the rest of popcorn kernels and distribute into an even layer.
4. Cover the pan again and remove from heat. Let it rest for 30 seconds. (This prevents the oil from getting too hot before the kernels are ready to pop)
5. Return the pan to the heat and continue cooking the popcorn.
6. Once the kernels start popping, keep the lid slightly ajar to allow steam to escape.
7. Continue cooking until the popping sound slows to about several seconds between pops. Remove the lid, and dump the popcorn into a large serving bowl.
