Cornelius:
The way I did it before I got a popcorn maker, was, like this: I take a pan, heat it up. One the pan is hot, I melt some butter. The butter melted, I sparingly add corn. I put on the lid, and, as soon as I hear the popping start, I lower the fire - as you only need to maintain the heat, and not heat up any more. Shake up the pan from time to time, so your popped corn stays on top.

Morituri:
For popcorn in oil, we always heated the oil in a saucepan, threw in three kernels, and added the rest once those had popped (or: a minute after the first of them popped).  We didn't actually cook it in butter, as the oil-popped corn came out with what we considered better texture.

But these days I use an air popper first and then add oil (or melted butter).

Welu:
Made curry in the slow cooker. Turned out really well for a first try and no recipe. Getting a lot more confident with trusting my instincts when it comes to cooking and ingredients.

Tova:
I just (coincidentally) discovered this video. It seemed relevant to the discussion. If you're only interested in the popcorn, skip to the second half.

Damn, I gotta get myself a metal bowl like that.
