Sometimes popcorn needs a different flavor. Try this Curry Movie Popcorn for a pop of flavor with every piece. One of our favorite ways to enjoy popcorn!

It’s Movie Night! What kind of popcorn are we making tonight?

We love popcorn at our house. We want a recipe with flavor and pizzazz. This Curry Popcorn hits the spot each and every time we whip up a batch.

We enjoy popping up some kernels and adding a little seasoning, a little spice. We have tried lots of combinations with popcorn, but I had never tried Curry Popcorn.

It was part of the Secret Recipe Club reveal back in the day, and it came from a blog called Koreafornian Cooking. 

She made a Korean California infused array of recipes and this was one of the things she offered up.

It looked incredibly delicious and the idea of Korean cooking intimidated me a bit simply because I had never done it before.

So Curry Popcorn it was. And I’m not at all sorry. 

As I am updating this recipe 7+ years later, I’m SO happy we picked it. We’ve made it dozens upon dozens of times.

We decided to go with the Curry Movie Popcorn because as soon as we read it, we wanted to try it.

We didn’t even care what the recipe called for, we were just sure it was yummy.

I mean, we love popping fresh kernels and adding my our own ingredients to make it super yummy, so why not with some Curry powder. Yes, it was simply perfect.

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons curry powder, or more to taste
• 1/2 cup 75 g. popping corn

Instructions

1. Pop your popcorn by whatever method you desire. We popped ours on the stove top, while [Koreafornian|http://www.koreaforniancooking.com] air popped popcorn. We doubled the recipe because there were six of us noshing on it, but the recipe I have provided is suitable for 4.
2. In a small saucepan, melt the butter and coconut oil over low heat. Can I just tell you, I've actually never been able to smell the coconut oil I use, but for some reason, this time I did. It smelled heavenly!!
3. Add the curry powder, and stir well until smooth.
4. Drizzle the curry-flavored oil while tossing the popcorn to evenly distribute the curry flavored butter. This was a lot harder to do than I thought it would be. Next time, I am going to preheat it all and actually pop the popcorn IN the sauce I made, but regardless.... It was actually super good and the kids gobbled it up quickly. (perfect after school snack!)
5. If desired, sprinkle some salt, and toss the popcorn again. Serve immediately.
