Servings 1 serving

50 g popping corn per serving. We usually do 100g at a time
Spray oil
Flavourings - Artificial sweetener salt, cinnamon or whatever else you feel like!

Spray a large, lidded saucepan with oil - bottom and sides. A saucepan with a glass lid is great for this!
Heat the saucepan at full heat on the hob and add the popping corn. Put the lid on.
When the corn starts to pop, turn the heat down to halfway. This stops the corn from burning.
Give the saucepan a shake every so often.
Remove the saucepan from the heat when there's a long gap between 'pops'.
Sprinkle flavouring over the popcorn whilst still in the saucepan, replace the lid and give it a good shake. Add more flavouring to suit your personal taste.
