Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Best to use dried chilli flakes for this. Use as much as you like – it all depends on how much of a chilli-fiend you are. I've added some sweet chilli sauce in here, too, which you can just spoon over at the end, once the popcorn is ready.

20g popping corn kernels
1tsp dried chilli flakes
A pinch of sweet paprika
1tsp Cornish chilli sea salt
2-3tsp chilli oil
Sweet chilli sauce to serve

Put the popcorn, chilli flakes, paprika, sea salt and chilli oil in the popcorn machine (or in a pan), turn it on and wait.

Serve drizzled with the chilli sauce.
