Method

Place all the ingredients into a medium size pan and stir thoroughly.
Cover the pan with a tight fitted lid and heat gently, you should be able to hear the kernels popping. Shake every now and then, and continue heating until the popping sound subsides.
Remove from the heat and leave to stand until no more popping sounds can be heard.
Remove the lid using oven gloves and stir thoroughly, otherwise the popcorn at the bottom will burn.
Leave to cool slightly, before popping into individual bowls and serving.
