Curry powder popcorn is a great way to heat up a bit your popcorn. If you are one of those soft curry lovers, or for a nice Bollywood movie… try those popcorns! You’ll love it.
Since I’ve started doing that a few years back, it became the only way I eat popcorn. There is a little butter in it and salt, as in the traditional popcorn. The only difference is a little of that curry powder, which is a dry mix of ginger, turmeric, fennel seed, cardamom, cloves, etc. some spicier than others. This way you can add just a little butter and the amount of curry powder you’d like. I use just a little butter, since to make it healthier.
Since it’s not a really complex dish but tasty one here is the short and sweet recipe.
