I don't think the fast condensing of steam would cause enough heat to cause more steam, though. Because the reason it condenses fast is because there's heat being removed from the system (cooling to the room, and no longer more heat getting added). So the heat is already "spoken for" - it's the reason that steam turned back into water.

The other commenter that wonders if it's a gas stove might be onto something.
