Nacho-Cheese Corn

Ingredients:
1/3 cup cooking oil
3 or 4 dried chilies
1 large clove garlic, cut into quarters
1 teaspoon cumin seed
1/3 cup unpopped popcorn
3 tablespoons hot oil
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt

Place cooking oil, chilies, garlic and cumin seed in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat for three minutes; let stand ten minutes.* Strain.

Use 3-tablespoons of seasoned oil for popping corn; reserve the rest. This makes about 2-1/2 quarts popped popcorn.

Pour remaining oil over popped popcorn, tossing to coat.

Mix Parmesan cheese, paprika and salt. Sprinkle over popped popcorn, tossing to mix. Yield: 2-1/2 quarts.

*A larger amount of hot oil may be made and stored for future use.
