Ingredients
-
1 habanero (choose size depending on how spicy you want it)
2 -3 tablespoons vegetable oil or 2 -3 tablespoons peanut oil
1/2 cup popcorn
Preparation
-
Put the vegetable or peanut oil in a pot suitable for popping corn.
Warm the oil gently and place sliced habanero in the oil (be careful to wash your hands after handling, and don't touch your eyes or nose!) Stir occasionally for 3 minutes.
Be careful not to heat the oil too much; the smoke from the oil will cause your lungs and eyes to burn.
Remove the sliced habanero from the oil and discard.
Pop your popcorn like you normally would in the spicy oil.
Add your favorite popcorn condiments, such as melted butter, salt, cheese flavoring, or my favorite, butter flavored sprinkles, and enjoy!
