SWEET POPCORN

Steps:

• Melt the vegetable oil and butter in a large saucepan or casserole over a low-medium heat. Stir to combine.
• Add the popping corn and spread it out with your spoon to form a layer over the bottom of the pan. Place the lid on the pan and turn up to medium-high.
• After a minute or so you will hear the corn kernels start to pop inside the pan. The pops will start coming thick and fast for about 3-4 minutes. When they slow down to 3-5 second intervals your popcorn is ready.
• Turn off the heat but leave the lid on for a couple of minutes (there's usually a few kernels that will pop after this point, so leaving the lid on for a few minutes stops them flying around your kitchen).
• Leave to cool slightly for a couple of minutes. Sprinkle in the sugar and stir to combine. Divide into bowls and serve.
