Popped Elote

Perfect stove top popcorn

Since i love doing anything with minimal equipment (we dont even own a microwave…), this is a great way to make perfect popcorn in a regular pan on the stove top.

INGREDIENTS

• 1/4 cup coconut oil (NOT canola! throw that stuff away)

• 2/3 cup popcorn kernels

• 3 Tablespoons butter, melted

• 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Add the coconut oil and 3 popcorn kernels to a large pot.

2. Cover and cook over medium-high heat until all 3 kernels pop.

3. Take the three kernels out of the pot.

4. Add the rest of the popcorn kernels.

5. Cover and take the pot off of the heat.

6. Wait 30 seconds.

7. Put the pot back on the heat. Cook, shaking the pot occasionally until the popping slows down.

8. After about 2 minutes, and the popping has slowed down, take the lid off of the pot. This lets the steam out and keeps the popcorn crisp.

9. While the popcorn is popping, melt the butter

10. Pour over the popcorn and sprinkle with salt. Toss until completely coated.
