Detailed explanation-1: -Because if you do it, you will immediately realize why you shouldn’t do it. Adding water (or substances with a lot of water, such as frozen vegetables with frost) to a hot pan with oil causes the water to immediately flash into a vapor, spraying a mist of hot oil and boiling water in all directions.
Detailed explanation-2: -the hot oil explode in many directions.
Detailed explanation-3: -When oil is placed on the surface of hot water, formation of droplets takes place because surface tension of hot water = surface tension of oil.
Detailed explanation-4: -It’s best to heat the pan first, then add oil or butter. You add oil after the pan is hot to prevent the oil from breaking down prematurely. It can make a huge difference because broken down oil becomes sticky. And sticky oil can ruin your culinary creation-not good.
