Red chillie powder – 1/5 tbsp

Instructions:

       Take a thick bottomed pan with wide mouth. Add oil, butter and heat it. When the butter starts to melt add turmeric powder, red chillie powder, salt and mix well. Add corn and saute under medium flame. Keep stirring. When the corn starts to pop, lower the flame and close the lid with a little gap to let the steam to escape. Keep stirring so that the corns pop. In no time, the pan will be filled with popped spicy and salty butter corns. Dish them out into a clean dry container and serve hot!

       There will be few corns which aren’t popped yet. Place them back on heat and stir fry. They would start to pop. Once done, switch off the flame and serve hot. If there are some more corns which aren’t popped do not worry. They wouldn’t pop and will start to burn. You may discard them.

       Hot, crispy, spicy, salty and buttery Pop-corns are ready. You may also add additional seasonings (salt, paprika) if required based on your preference. Pop corns are an all time favorite among movie buffs and young kids. This super quick snack can be made by any one, any day, any time within seconds. It’s that simple! Sibling fights for pop corns will become a story from the past. Why not give it a try then?

NOTE: Please try making this recipe strictly under adult supervision.

       Freshly made pop corns are always the best snack be it either while watching TV or reading books. The crispness of these pop corns remain much longer than the store bought pop corns. Any excess pop corns can be packed in an air tight container and stored in a cool and dry place for later consumption. Try out this simple recipe and let me know your comments.
