Steps:
- Method To make the pineapple syrup, pour the pineapple juice into a frying pan or wok (the wider the base, the better). Heat on a medium temperature, swirling the pan regularly to ensure that it doesn't burn at the bottom. Do this until most of the liquid has evaporated and you're left with a about a tablespoon of intense pineapple syrup that has the consistency of honey. This might take up to an hour, so it's worth starting early and perhaps pouring yourself a glass of wine. Pop the butter in a saucepan along with the sugar, salt and chilli. Heat on a low-medium temperature, stirring regularly to help the sugar to dissolve. Once the mixture has thickened to a consistency similar to lemon curd, reduce your stirring and bring it slowly to the boil until bubbles start to appear all over the surface. Once it starts bubbling, leave it to caramelise for 3 minutes without stirring. The colour will start to darken. While waiting for the caramel to cook, fill a tablespoon with the pineapple syrup, so that it is ready to add to the mixture. Make sure that your popcorn is also ready and waiting in a big bowl that has plenty of room for some vigorous stirring. After 3 minutes, take the caramel mixture off the heat and add the tablespoon of pineapple syrup to the frying pan or wok, stirring it in. Immediately pour the mixture over the popcorn, stirring quickly to ensure that the popcorn is evenly coated before the caramel cools and hardens. Put the popcorn on a baking tray and place it in the oven at 100°C for 30 minutes to evaporate off any remaining liquid and allow it to become deliciously crisp. Take the popcorn out of the oven and leave it to cool. Sit back and enjoy - perhaps paired with a cold Red Stripe or other pale lager while dreaming of azure seas, golden beaches and palm trees swaying gently in the breeze. Taken from thepopcornist.com
