Allow healing naturally, and in the meantime, may put Vaseline ointment to cover the area during healing and try as much as possible to keep the area clean. It is important to take precaution to avoid future accidents with hot items by foot wear or using pot holder when removing hot things from the stove.

Whenever a burn has developed on the body something very cold needs to be placed over the area. The best is cold running water. This is so that you can draw the heat out of the tissue and try to prevent as much damage as possible. With black discoloration you could have tertiary or third-degree burns. Do you want to prevent infection. Over-the-counter antibiotic ointment would be best preventative
