  1. In a large pot (at least 5 quarts), heat ¼ cup of oil over medium high heat. When it is hot, add the popcorn and cover tightly. Once popping starts, vigorously shake the pot to distribute kernels. Once popping slows, remove the pot from heat and pour popcorn into a large bowl.

  2. In a large skillet, heat the remaining oil over medium heat. When it has warmed, add the peanuts and let them turn golden, about 1 minute then add garlic and chili peppers just until they release their fragrance, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and pour over the popcorn. Immediately add the sugar and stir several times to coat the popcorn with oil and sugar.
