The world of savoury popcorn is new to me, and it’s really exciting! Having previously been exclusively a toffee popcorn lover (and not ashamed to say it).

But after dipping my toes into the savoury popcorn pool, I can’t believe it didn’t try it sooner! Even more simple than making a batch of bacon halloumi bites or bacon pineapple bites, this garlic parmesan popcorn will not disappoint.

It’s SUPER quick to make and out of this world delicious! A perfect snack for film night or when the big game is on. Team it up with some pitta slices and homemade tzatziki, and every inch of you will be wholly satisfied!

Garlic Parmesan Popcorn – Step by Step Picture Recipe

Here is what you will need to make a BIG bowl.

Ingredients

  • 100g Popcorn Kernels
  • 1-2 tbsp Rice Bran Oil
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder/Granules
  • 1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 75g Parmesan, finely grated
  • Salt & Pepper

Essential Equipment

  • Very Large Lidded Saucepan

Instructions

Heat the oil in the saucepan over a medium high heat. To test the temperature, throw a kernel in. When it pops, it’s hot enough! When it is, add all the kernels, put the lid on and shake a little. Turn the heat down to medium low once they start popping.

Keep shaking the pan occasionally until you can’t here anymore popping.

While it’s still hot, throw in the garlic, paprika, parmesan and a little salt and pepper. Give it a quick mix then pop the lid back on to allow the cheese to melt.

This really is a beautiful snack. I absolutely love that some of the parmesan slips down to the bottom of the pan and creates an almost crispy parmesan tuile. When that all breaks up and mixes in with the popcorn… wow! Little crispy bits of salty parmesan and crunchy garlic popcorn.

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! Garlic parmesan popcorn is a winner.
