Make the Popcorn

• Put the vegetable oil (½ tsp) into a saucepan and use some kitchen paper to spread it around to coat the bottom and sides of the pan.
• Add the popping corn (80g)
• Cover with a lid and place over a medium heat. Shake the pan occasionally as this helps to ensure that the popcorn at the bottom of the pan doesn't burn.
• Once the pan is warm enough the corn will start popping, leave on the heat until all the corn has popped - the popping sounds will die down to about once every second.
• As soon as the corn has popped, remove from the heat and tip the popcorn into a large bowl (the biggest you can find) - You don't want to leave the popcorn in the pan as the residual heat may burn the corn at the bottom making it taste bitter.

Make the spiced orange flavouring

• Place a small saucepan over a low heat.
• Add the butter (2 tbsp), light brown sugar (2 tbsp) and golden syrup (2 tbsp) and continue to heat until the butter has melted.
• Remove from the heat.
• Add the ground mixed spice (2 tsp) and grated orange zest (½ orange).
• Stir to combine all of the ingredients and pour over the cooked popcorn

• Toss the popcorn in the flavouring until there is a fine coating on all of the corn.
• Serve
