are you the type who runs away from the stove everytime you fry as the frying oil splatters?
im so afraid of it. so every time i fry, i turn off the stove first and let the oil cool before i flip the fish or chicken over.
but i just wonder, how come some fryers dont experience this. like no oil splattering.
any tips you would like to share?

I don't really like it, but not afraid! I don't fry food that much though.

@Janet357 I don't avoid oil necessarily; just the bad ones (like vegetable and canola). Yeah, olive oil is fine...when I bake and a recipe calls for oil I use that.

Wear eyeglass and armband but kidding aside just keep the fire low ( after heating oil) and put the stuff before turning the fire higher. Cover the food , when the frying sound stops take off the pan from the fire and turn the other side and put back the pan on the stove.

@Janet357 make sure you have tomato in the fridge which you can use to treat minor burns from oil splatter.

No, I use to it. For simple vegetable frying is normal but if we are frying like fish or meats then distance need to be maintained

I've never been afraid of frying foods, or the splatter that sometimes happens when frying. In the southern United States, we like to fry a lot of our foods, so I'm used to all the splatter and grease. It doesn't bother me too much, although I don't like cleaning up the mess afterward!

Do not turn the heat up so high, you can wear long sleeves and gloves so it does not splatter.

it's very dangerous if it comes out but with slow flow, i don't think it will be a problem but we have seen many cases who met with an accident about what you talking so always be careful by keeping a distance from the stove.
