Ingredients

100 g (1/2 cup) popcorn kernels
2 tbsp vegetable oil
30 g butter, melted (for classic)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp smoked paprika (for spicy)
1 tbsp icing sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon (for sweet)

Method

Heat oil in a large pot with a lid. Add kernels, cover, shake until popping slows.
Divide popcorn into three bowls.
Toss one with butter and salt, one with paprika, one with icing sugar and cinnamon.

Tip: Keep the lid slightly ajar so steam escapes and popcorn stays crisp.
