Heat your pan up to the right temperature before adding oil.
To test the temperature of your pan, drop a small amount of water into the pan.
If the water evaporates off quickly, the pan is too hot.
If the water bubbles and disperses in the pan, the pan is too cold.
If the pan is just right the water will form one big bubble. Check out our video.
Wipe out the pan of water and add your cooking oil.
