What do you love about this recipe?
I really love this recipe because it's so easy to make. And if you don't eat it all, you can bag it for a snack later. Ghee can last a month without refrigeration, so I love taking it on camping trips. I made it when I was on a road trip last summer in Montana.
Healthy-ish Popcorn
Ingredients
- Corn kernels
- Ghee butter
- Turmeric
- Cumin
- Cayenne
- Salt
Instructions
Step 1
Grab a medium-sized pot with a lid and put it over whatever heat source you have. Add at least a few tablespoons of ghee and one corn kernel into the pot. Cover with lid.
Step 2
Once the single kernel pops, add more kernels. They should cover the bottom of the pot. Replace the lid. Make sure you shake the pot a few times so nothing burns.
Step 3
Once the kernels have all popped, take the pot off the heat and dump your popcorn into a bowl. Add about 1/2 a tablespoon of turmeric, 1/2 a tablespoon of cumin and a pinch of cayenne. Sprinkle with salt to taste. Mix with your hands or a utensil. You can add more ghee if you like a lot of butter. Just melt it and pour it on top, then mix.
