Best Answer

when water spills in hot oil, it makes a strange bubbly sound as the water is sinking to the bottom. Nothing bad happens. Unless of course the oil is very hot (over a 100C ), in which case the drop of water as its sinking in the oil almost instantly turns to steam, it as it turns to steam it also rapidly expands and can thus end up Spattering hot oil everywhere. Thus it is not recommended when cooking that you add water to very hot oil.
