Popcorn is the flavour of the month. This comfort snack can be devoured anywhere, anytime. However, plain jane popcorn can be a buzzkill especially if you plan to binge on it, while watching your favourite TV shows. To enhance your binging sessions with TV or video games with popcorn, we bring you these colourful, quirky, easy to make popcorn recipes. From desi chaat masala popcorn, ranching it up with BBQ to Mexican churro popcorns, take your pick.

CHOCO WITH A COCONUT SPIN

Start by popping the popcorns in the microwave. Once they are popped, pour them in a bowl and keep it aside. Add dark chocolate and coconut oil and microwave them together. Make sure they are properly mixed.

Pour half of this mixture on top of the popcorn. Make sure that most of the popcorn is coated with this mixture. Then, pour the remaining of the mixture on the popcorn and coat them properly.

Sprinkle little bit of salt and coconut oil on top and place it in the refrigerat­or till the coating becomes solid.

CHURRO STYLE MEXICO

In a small bowl, combine sugar, cinnamon and all spice together and keep aside. Pop the popcorns over medium heat with oil and keep aside.

In a small pan, melt butter along with vanilla almond bark. Then, coat the popcorn with melted butter and vanilla almond bark with a spatula gently. After that, sprinkle the spiced sugar onto the popcorn. Put it into an airtight container for couple of hours. Your Mexican churro popcorn is ready to be served.

NACHO GETS POPPED

Start by combining paprika, cumin and parmesan in a small bowl and keep it aside. Add butter in a pan and melt it over medium heat. Make the popcorns in this pan so that melted butter gets coated on them. Then, combine popcorns with paprika and cumin mixture. Mix it properly by tossing them in bowl. Get ready to devour your Nacho popcorns.

MARSHMALLO­W DELIGHT

Microwave the popcorn and keep it aside. Then microwave butter, brown sugar and marshmallo­ws. Ensure it melts properly.

Take it out and mix it with a spatula. Then pour the popcorn in an airtight container and add the mixture of melted butter and marshmallo­w. Shake till popcorn is coated with the mixture.
