3 tablespoons makes about as much as a normal bag of microwave popcorn, maybe a bit less.
1 teensy bit of olive oil or canola oil, i probably use a teaspoon or less
put in a medium weight pot with a lid, put over medium heat, shake for a few until it starts popping and it'll stop after a while. it's pretty hard to burn tjhat way bc it totally stops popping and you have a minute or two taht you can actually leave it on the burner before it burns. Again, use med heat, not high or it will burn quickly. I can actually pop all of the kernels 99% of the time and every once in a while, i'll get 1-2 kernels that don't pop.
Then, spray on olive oil (i love olive oil, can't ya tell) and salt or add butter and salt. either way.
enjoy 
the best part is that you can use as little or as much popcorn as you need

EXACTLY! Screw that stupid micro-stuff. Your friends will be amazed at your mad popping skills and it's the rave with all the honnies. Besides, it's better for you and you have a bit of dignity when you're eating it. Don't be afraid to spice it up with whatever is in the spice rack.
