vegetable oil — 2 tbsp (30 ml)
melted butter — 1-2 tbsp (15-30 ml)
salt — 1/4 tsp (1 g)

1Preheat the air fryer to 200°C and line the basket with aluminum foil.
2In a small bowl, mix the popcorn kernels with oil, then spread them evenly on the foil.
3Place a rack or a sieve over the kernels to prevent them from jumping into the heating element.
4Cook in the air fryer for 8 minutes, until popping slows down, then remove the popcorn.
5Put the unpopped kernels back in the air fryer and cook for another 3 minutes.
6Discard any remaining unpopped kernels, pour melted butter over the popcorn, and sprinkle salt to taste.
