Cloudy Bay Lemon & Herb Popcorn

Serves 2 / Prep 5 minutes / Cook 5 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 60g butter
  • 1 tablespoon chopped herbs such as parsley, oregano, thyme 
  • Finely grated zest of one lemon
  • Quarter of a teaspoon garlic powder or half a teaspoon granules
  • 2 tablespoons oil (sunflower or coconut)
  • Third of a cup popcorn kernels
  • Half a teaspoon turmeric
  • Half a teaspoon salt

Method:

  1. Put the butter, herbs and garlic powder in a small saucepan over a medium heat and melt together. Set aside. 
  2. Heat the oil in a large heavy based saucepan, with a lid, over a medium heat. Add the popcorn, turmeric and salt to the oil and cook, stirring until the popcorn starts popping. 
  3. Then quickly cover, shaking constantly so you don’t burn the popcorn. 
  4. When the sound of popping subsides, uncover, drizzle over the butter mixture and shake/stir well to coat. 
  5. Season with more salt if preferred.
