Written by Published on in Other, Snacks
8 Servings ~ 10 minutes
  • 1 cup popcorn
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • Salt for seasoning
  • Oil

I used to enjoy making this popcorn a lot when I was 13 years old and my siblings loved it too. In fact my older sister always used to make requests time and again for me to make this caramel popcorn. It’s not rocket science or anything fancy but just a twist to the usual popcorn we know. Hope you will like it.

Quick Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a deep pot. Add popcorn when the oil is hot. Allow popcorn to cook when done put in bowl and add salt right away
  2. Pour some sugar in another pot and begin stirring until it dissolves (caramelizing). Continue stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved and remove from heat.
  3. Use wooden  spoon to drizzle the caramel over the popcorn tossing after each drizzle.
  4. That’s it!
