Warm pot on the stove. Place oil and a couple of kernels of unpopped popcorn in the pot, and heat on high until kernels pop. Add remaining kernels and sugar, and stir until oil coats the kernels; sugar melts and corn begins to pop. Cover with a lid that has a vent, and shake until popping slows. Remove from heat, empty into another container, removing kernels that might be scorched.
