The Chinese character 炸 (zhà) is composed of two parts: the radical 火 (huǒ), which means "fire", and the phonetic component 炸 (zhà), which is a variant of the character 炸 (zhà), meaning "to explode". The character 炸 (zhà) is therefore literally interpreted as "to explode with fire". This character is often used in the context of cooking, where it refers to the process of deep-frying food in hot oil. It can also be used in a more general sense to refer to any kind of explosion or sudden release of energy.
