      Oil can, in fact, boil.

      This boiling can be observed on a small scale when roasting (don’t know if that’s the word I’m looking for) something in pan.

      The problem with boiling oil it is that the boiling temperature for some commonly used oils is at or above the ignition temperature. So wrong oil used = fire
