• 2 tablespoons canola oil

• 1 teaspoon fennel seeds

• 1 teaspoon coriander seeds

• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds

How to make Masala Popcorn

Place the popcorn in a large bowl.

In a small saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the fennel seeds, coriander seeds, and cumin seeds and let them crackle. Stir in the green chilli, curry leaves, Kashmiri chilli powder, turmeric, and asafetida. Pour the mixture over the popcorn. Add the sugar and salt and stir or toss to coat evenly. (Keep tossing as you eat it to distribute the spice.)
