Cook safely
Buy a smoke alarm fitted with a "hush button" so if it goes off accidentally you can silence it instantly. That way you won't be tempted to remove the battery (except to change it for a new one). If your alarm keeps going off unnecessarily you may need to move it further away from the kitchen.
If a deep fat frying pan catches fire never throw water over it, if you have a fire blanket, put it over the pan.
