Popcorn - Everyday Way
1/4 cup cooking oil
1/2 cup popcorn
Heat a heavy, 3-quart saucepan (with a cover) over high heat for about 2 minutes.
Pour cooking oil into the pan. It should cover the bottom.
Lower heat to medium high.
Add 3-4 kernels.
When they pop, add just enough popcorn to cover the bottom of the pan. (Don't add more than 1/2 cup.)
Lower heat, cover pan, and shake.
When popping stops, pour into a bowl. Add melted butter and salt.
Eat!
