Sweet and Savoury Spiced Popcorns

It's movie night, but felt like something a little different... enter spiced popcorn, one sweet and one savoury.

Savoury Spice Mix
1 tsp powdered curry leaves
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Add all to pestle and mortar and grind together until thoroughly mixed. Taste and adjust as preferred.

Sweet Spice Mix
2 cardamom pods
1 tsp allspice
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tbsp granulated sugar

Split open the cardamom pods and put the seeds into the pestle and mortar. Grind to coarse powder.
Add all other spices and grind until mixed and sugar is visibly finer.
Taste and adjust as preferred.

Popcorn
Pour in enough oil to cover the base of a saucepan with lid, add 2-3 kernels of corn and set on a high heat, shaking occasionally.
When those have popped, the oil is hot enough - add the rest of the kernels (enough to just cover the base roughly) and put the lid back on quickly to keep the heat in.
Hold the lid and shake the pan to coat the kernels with oil.
Return to the heat and shake occasionally as they pop.
When popping has stopped take off the heat and leave to cool a little.

Split your popcorn into two bowls, and gradually sprinkle your chosen spice mix over, mixing with one hand to evenly coat the batch.
