Time 25m

Yield about 12 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, diced
1/2 teaspoon whole brown mustard seeds
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon hot smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup popcorn kernels
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Spread the shredded coconut in a rimmed baking sheet and bake, tossing halfway through, until golden brown and toasted, about 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan and add the mustard seeds, coriander, paprika, turmeric, garlic powder, ginger and onion powder. Cook until the butter becomes fragrant and the spices are no longer raw, about 1 minute. Turn off the heat.
  • Preheat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat until the oil shimmers. Add the popcorn kernels and stir to evenly coat, then cover the pot. Cook, shaking the pot occasionally, until the popping subsides, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour the popcorn into a large bowl, drizzle with the spiced butter and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Add the toasted coconut and toss until all the components are evenly dispersed. Serve warm.

COCONUT SUGAR CARAMEL CORN



Coconut Sugar Caramel Corn image

This crunchy caramel corn gets its complex spiciness from a combination of turmeric and coconut palm sugar. The recipe is adapted from Jessica Koslow, of Sqirl restaurant in Los Angeles, who riffed off a dish her friend, the chef Angela Dimayuga, brought for Thanksgiving one year. Make sure to use a very large pot here, you'll need plenty of room to toss the popped corn with the caramel. This popcorn keeps, stored airtight at room temperature, for up to 5 days. But chances are it will be gone long before.

Time 25m

Yield About 13 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons virgin coconut oil
3 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1/2 cup popcorn kernels
1 cup coconut palm sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/4 teaspoons turmeric
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • In a very large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed stock pot set over medium-high heat, heat both oils and 3 popcorn kernels. When the 3 kernels pop, add the remaining kernels, lower heat to medium-low, and cover almost all the way with a lid, leaving a tiny crack for steam to escape (face crack away from where you are standing).
  • Cook, shaking occasionally, until popping stops. Transfer popcorn to a large rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • In the same pot, heat sugar, butter, turmeric and salt over medium heat, stirring, until sugar is melted and starting to bubble. Cook, without stirring, until sugar has reached 235 degrees, 3 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in popcorn. Transfer popcorn to back to lined baking sheet. Cool, then break into pieces and serve.

Time 1h45m

Yield Makes 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons extra-virgin coconut oil
1/2 cup popcorn kernels
1 1/2 cups unsweetened coconut flakes
1 cup packed dark-brown sugar
1 stick unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment. Heat oil and 3 popcorn kernels in a large, heavy pot over medium-high until kernels have popped. Add remaining kernels; swirl to coat in oil.
  • Cover pot and remove from heat 30 seconds. Return to heat and cook, covered, until popping slows, 2 to 3 minutes. Immediately transfer popcorn to a large heatproof bowl; stir in coconut.
  • In a saucepan, bring brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until slightly thickened, 3 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Pour over popcorn, stirring to coat. Transfer mixture to prepared baking sheet, spreading in an even layer.
  • Sprinkle with salt and bake, stirring occasionally, until popcorn is just golden, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes. Caramel popcorn can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Use good quality ingredients, especially the coconut milk. Full-fat coconut milk will give you the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. Curry powder is a classic choice, but you could also try garam masala, cumin, or cardamom.
  • Be careful not to overcook the popcorn. It should be popped and fluffy, but not hard or chewy.
  • If you're using a stovetop, be sure to stir the popcorn constantly so that it doesn't burn.
  • If you're using a microwave, be sure to use a large bowl so that the popcorn has room to expand.
  • Once the popcorn is coated in the caramel mixture, be sure to spread it out on a baking sheet so that it doesn't clump together.
  • Let the popcorn cool completely before storing it in an airtight container.

Conclusion:

Coconut curry caramel corn is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that's perfect for any occasion. It's sweet, salty, and has a hint of spice that makes it irresistible. Plus, it's a great way to use up leftover popcorn.

So next time you're looking for a tasty treat, give coconut curry caramel corn a try. You won't be disappointed!
