Ingredients
- 1/2 cup popcorn kernels (125 mL)
- 4 tsp canola oil (20 mL)
Directions
- In a large saucepan, heat 4 tsp canola oil over medium-high heat. Add 3 kernels, cover, and wait for them to all pop so you know the oil is hot enough.
- Add ½ cup popcorn kernels. Place lid on and let kernels cook, shaking occasionally to prevent burning.
- Allow steam to escape while popping by slightly offsetting the lid, and when the popping slows to 3 to 5 seconds between pops, remove pan from burner.
