- Turn all traces of gas off and make sure there is no flammable items such as aerosol cans, petrol or anything like that near by.
- Do NOT pour water over it! Water will only help the oil to create a bigger flame and the fire will explode and may harm or even kill you.
- Get a towel and dampen it.
- Ring it out so it is slightly damp.
- Place it over the fire and leave it there for at least 30 minutes (depending on the size of the fire).
- Placing a damp towel on the fire will stop oxygen from getting to the flames so the fire will smother out.
- If you take the towel off before at least 30 minutes has gone, the fire will most likely explode and spread again.

The water vapour expands rapidly, ejecting a fireball of burning oil out of the chip pan and into the air where its surface area increases greatly and combustion proceeds much faster
