Cook Popcorn
In a medium large sized pot pour oil and popcorn and place it over medium high heat.
Cover the pot and move it in a circular motion until the kernels begin to fry. Once the popping starts lower the heat to medium and continue to move the pot in a circular motion.
Once the popping has slowed to 1-2 pops per every ten seconds remove the popcorn from the heat.
