Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbsp popcorn kernels

Instructions
 

  • Start by making a fairly decent fire. You need it to be pretty hot in order to pop the corn kernels and not just burn them slowly.
  • Next, place about 1 Tbsp of popcorn kernels and 1 Tbsp of oil into an empty can. Hang the can from the end of a roasting stick.
  • Place the can over the hot fire and shake gently. Once you hear popping noises, shake continuously until it stops.
  • Carefully cut the can open, the edges will be sharp, top with melted butter and salt to enjoy!
