Pop Corn

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
A popular snack and a unique favorite short eat for many especially movie and sport lovers. Instead of buying popcorn at the theatres, where they come in bucket size or large cups, it's always recommended that you make your own popcorn at home and bring it to the theatre as you can portion control of how much you should eat. It's pretty easy to pop the corn seeds at home.



Ingredients
%%%%%%%%

Corn Seeds     2 cups
Salt                to taste

Method
%%%%%
  • Preheat a deep pan on medium heat. Let it reach the heating point.
  • Once the pan is heated, drop in the corn seeds and toast them by frequent stirring till small brown spots appear on them.
  • Now cover with the lid and heat on a medium flame till the seeds begin to pop. After a min. reduce the heat.
  • Once all the seeds pop, turn off the heat and take out in a bowl. Sprinkle just a pinch of salt and shake well.
Note:  
  1. Another variation to it is, you can  toast the seeds in 2 tsps. butter and let them pop.
  2. Make sure there is ample space for the corn seeds to pop.
  3. Pack popcorn in ziplock covers and enjoy the fun time at the theatres.
