"Splash" is the general word, and it will do fine. More specifically, we say that hot oil or grease spatters, and that we get spattered by it. Bearing in mind that a verbal warning is criminally inadequate for protecting a child from boiling oil and that it should be made impossible for him to get near it, "Watch out, Junior.
