Coconut Curry Flavored Popcorn

Ingredients:

• 1 cup sweet coconut flakes
• 110 g butter, diced
• 0.5 tsp brown mustard seeds
• 1/4 tsp ground coriander
• 1/4 tsp hot smoked paprika
• 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
• 1/8 tsp garlic powder
• 1/8 tsp ground ginger
• 1/8 tsp onion powder
• 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup popcorn

Preparation:

1. Preheat oven to 175°C.
   
   Spread the coconut flakes on a rimmed baking sheet and bake, stirring halfway through, until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
2. 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 is fragrant and the spices are toasted, about 1 minute. Turn off the heat.
3. Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the corn kernels and stir to coat evenly, then cover the pan with a lid. Cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until the popping noise stops, about 5 minutes.
4. Place the popcorn in a large bowl, drizzle with the spiced butter, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt. Add the toasted coconut and stir to evenly distribute the ingredients. Serve the popcorn warm.
