Cook safely
Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.
Hot oil. Never put water on an oil fire: turn off the heat and cover the pan with a lid or a damp tea towel. Pat food dry before it goes into hot oil, and lower it in gently, away from you.
