The perfect way to enjoy the DVDs you find under the Christmas Tree this year.
Preparation time: 15 minutes.
Cooking time: 15 minutes.
You will need:
-
15 cups of popped popcorn
-
1 cup of granulated sugar
-
1/4 cup of water
-
2 Tbs of butter
-
1/2 cup of cream
-
1 tsp of sea salt
You will then:
Place the sugar and water in a non-stick saucepan, stir to dissolve.
Place over a medium-high heat and swirl occasionally, to ensure even distribution of heat.
Allow to bubble – this could take 10-15 minutes, depending on the size of your pot – swirling every minute.
As soon as a glimmer of caramel appears, swirl to spread – so the entire pan turns caramel – and remove from the heat.
Add the butter, and again, swirl until it is melted and combined- off the heat.
Add the cream and salt – you can stir this in.
You may need to put it back on the heat for a minute if the cream causes the caramel to solidify.
Place the popcorn on a baking tray – in a single layer if possible – and drizzle over the caramel.
Toss and stir until all the popcorn is covered.
Allow to ‘set’ for an hour or so, until the caramel is no longer wet.
