hi there, i was frying 3 cheese sausages in a frying pan when suddenly there was what sounded like a violent explosion. the pan started shooting out drops of boiling liquid.
expecting to see a blown up sausage but i saw it had nothing to do with them. i then realized it had to do sometthing with the water & oil in the base of the pan.
when i had put the pan on the cooker it contained a little water on one side of the pan. i had added some drops of oil to the other side.
Frying typically takes place at temps above 300 deg F. Water boils at 212 deg F. Water and oil do not mix. So, the little water bubbles get instantly superheated beyond boiling by the hot oil and *POP*!... a bursting steam bubble throws very hot oil everywhrere. IOW, keep water away from frying oil.

You're responding to a troll who's name is "beer is my gas"?
i am not a troll stev. just because you think this is a trivial question does not mean it is common sense. & probably you knew the answer because years ago you had made the same mistake yourself.
