Detailed explanation-1: -Pour on Baking Soda-Baking soda will extinguish grease fires, but only if they’re small. It takes a lot of baking soda to do the job. Spray the Pot with a Class B Dry Chemical Fire Extinguisher-This is your last resort, as fire extinguishers will contaminate your kitchen.
Detailed explanation-2: -Baking soda is not combustible. Bicarbonate of soda is a gentle base substance that will not ignite in a fire or act as a fuel source. In fact, we can use it to great effect to fight fires. The reason for all of this is the reaction of the sodium bicarbonate in response to high heat.
Detailed explanation-3: -NEVER move the pot. You could splash burning oil on yourself – or spread the fire. NEVER use water. Water and oil don’t mix. NEVER pour baking products on the fire. NEVER attempt to smother the fire with flammable materials.
