Salted Chocolate Popcorn
I love freshly made popcorn. There are many variations and one I particularly enjoy is this salted chocolate version. I make it so the chocolate can be tasted but the popcorn is not thickly coated. You could add more chocolate bits for a greater chocolate hit .
Preparation Time 5 minutes
Cooking Time 5 minutes
Makes 4 cups.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon oil
3 tablespoons popping corn
2 tablespoons dark chocolate bits
½ teaspoon salt
Method
Pour oil into a large saucepan and heat over medium heat.
When oil is hot, drop in a corn kernel. When it pops the oil is hot enough.
Add rest of corn kernels
Put on lid.
Gently shake saucepan side to side to spread the kernels
Holding lid on shake the saucepan every 30 seconds.
When popping ceases, remove saucepan from the heat..
Add dark chocolate bits and salt straight away while saucepan is hot.
Stir chocolate bits and salt through the popcorn.
There should be enough heat to melt the bits but if there isn't, carefully return the saucepan to a very low heat for a few seconds and stir constantly so the chocolate melts but doesn't burn.
Tip popcorn into a large bowl or divide between smaller bowls to serve.
