Add a egg to the popcorn and the result will surprise you

1. Crack an egg into a bowl and add a tablespoon of water. Whisk together until fully combined. Add salt and pepper, and any additional seasonings you prefer.
2. Drizzle the egg mixture over the popcorn while it’s still warm. Quickly toss the popcorn to coat it evenly. The heat from the popcorn will partially cook the egg, causing it to slightly adhere to the kernels.

Step 3: Fry the Egg-Coated Popcorn

1. Heat a large skillet with a thin layer of oil over medium heat.
2. Once the oil is hot, add the egg-coated popcorn. Stir frequently to ensure even cooking and to prevent the popcorn from burning. The goal is to get a light, crispy coating on the popcorn without overcooking it. This should take about 1-2 minutes.

Step 4: Serve

1. Remove the popcorn from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess oil.
2. Serve immediately while warm and crispy.

Tips:

• Work quickly to coat the popcorn with the egg mixture and get it into the skillet to prevent it from becoming soggy.
• Keep the popcorn moving in the skillet to ensure it crisps up without getting overly browned or burnt.
• Adjust seasonings according to taste, and consider adding cheese for extra flavor.

This technique might sound a bit unconventional, but it can create a surprisingly tasty snack that’s a cross between popcorn and savory, crispy egg-coated dishes. It’s a fun experiment that could add an interesting twist to your snack repertoire!
