Easy Homemade Popcorn (3 Flavors)

DESCRIPTION

Quick and easy popcorn made in the microwave and tossed with three different kinds of homemade seasoning: cheesy Doritos, cool ranch and furikake. You'll never go back to store-bought popcorn after realising how easy it is to make it at home!

INGREDIENTS

• 50g popcorn kernels
• 1 tsp oil

Cheesy Dorito seasoning

• 3 tbsp nutritional yeast
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• 1/4 tsp cumin
• Pinch of salt

Cool ranch seasoning

• 1/2 tsp dried dill
• 1/2 tsp dried chives
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• Pinch of salt
• Pinch of pepper

Furikake seasoning

• 2 tbsp furikake

INSTRUCTIONS

Make the seasonings

1. Using a mortar and pestle, grind up the seasonings.

Make popcorn

2. Place the popcorn kernels and oil in a large microwave safe bowl and stir until each kernel is covered with oil. Cover the bowl with a vented lid. Alternatively, cover the bowl with parchment paper and secure with a rubber band, then poke a few holes with a knife.
3. Microwave on high for 2 minutes or until the popping slows down to 1-2 seconds between pops.
4. Carefully remove the bowl from the microwave. Let cool slightly, then toss popcorn with your preferred seasoning (or try all three of them!)

NOTES

• Make sure you use a lid with a vent otherwise it might explode from the pressure build-up!
• Take care not to burn yourself when removing the bowl from the microwave as it will be very hot.
• If your seasonings aren't sticking to the popcorn, spray the popcorn lightly with cooking spray before tossing with seasoning. Another tip is to make sure the seasonings are ground up to a fine powder before tossing!
