Drain excess water from food
Water and oil do not mix, so if you put food with water into hot oil, it will cause the oil to splatter. Therefore, you should avoid frying vegetables, freshly washed meat or fish, or frozen food with excess water.
The solution is to drain the excess water or use a paper towel to thoroughly dry the food before frying.

Add a little salt to the oil when frying
This is an extremely simple and easy method. Pour the oil into the pan, wait for it to heat up, then sprinkle a small amount of salt (about 1/4 teaspoon) evenly, and then add the food for frying.
In addition to detoxifying the oil, salt also significantly reduces the amount of oil splattering.
Add ginger before heating the oil
Ginger is a basic spice commonly found in every kitchen. When adding oil to the pan, you can add a few slices of ginger, wait until the pan is hot, then remove the ginger and start frying as usual.
Rub lemon on the bottom of the pan
This is a simple trick to minimize oil splattering. Rub a thin slice of lemon on the bottom of the pan before adding the oil, and it will be very effective.
Preheat the pan before frying
Preheating the pan before adding the oil or fat: Heating the pan thoroughly before adding oil or fat for frying helps prevent food from sticking.
