Heat a non-stick pan up to just over medium heat (depending on your stove...around 6 or maybe 7 I guess). Let it get nice and hot and put the seeds on. They shouldnt crackle, that would mean the pan is too hot.

Let them kinda sit there for a bit (umm...like maybe a thirty seconds...depends on the pan and the heat). When they start toasting they will darken in color, you will probably smell it and you might see a small amount of oil released by they seeds.

Just start stirring them around by 'swirling' (for lack of a better term) the pan. Do that, let them sir for a bit, swirl again, let them sit. The whole process shouldnt take more then a couple minutes. They should only change from white/very light brown to a medium kaki color.
