What is a chip-pan fire?
The Stages of a chip pan fire 1. Oil gets so hot that it catches fire all by itself 2. Water is poured into the burning chip pan 3. Water is denser than oil, so it sinks to the bottom of the chip pan (shown in red). As the water touches the bottom, it is heated above its boiling point and instantly vaporizes. 4. 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

How do you Put out gasoline fire?
Do not use water! Foam is best, carbon dioxide is next best, smothering with sand is the the last best. You need to cut off the oxygen (air) supply that the flames feed off. Using water would simply spread the flames around. If the fire is small, a damp cloth thrown over the flames would probably do - which is best to use if a chip pan goes on fire (after switching off the heat, of course).
