Cooking oil had overheated in a hob pan and caught alight, prompting the female occupier at the flat in Fawcett Road to call the emergency services.
A spokesman from Southsea Fire Station said: ‘We were called to the home at about 11.30am. The woman alerted us to the small kitchen fire which we put under control quickly.
