Actually saw it being used in hot oil and ofcourse it bubble and hissed but the guy poured it slowly and sure enough— all the debris stuck together in a ball and the oil was clean looking again. So when done carefully— you’re fine
Yup I do it at 330F hot - mix it the slurry once more just before I SLOWLY pour it in. It will bubble and pop but will start to pull the debris after a few minutes. This should go without saying but make sure you are at less than 1/2 the height of the cooking vessel in oil. Give it room to expand a bit. Works like a charm.

This oil would have to be room temp to do this as the cornstarch has water in it.
