Not exactly. I have a typical, generic stir fry template (unless I'm trying to do something specific).

Heat a little oil till almost smoking, throw in some dried whole chiles and stir fry until they toasted and are smelling good.

Throw in the velveted meat, cooking till the color is right (need not be totally cooked through at this point), add some minced ginger and garlic and fry another 30 seconds or so until aromatic, then pull the meat and chiles and set aside.

Add whatever veggies and stir fry till just shy of tender-crisp (if you have a lid, another technique you can use--depending on the veggies involved--is adding a small bit of water and putting a lid to the wok to encourage steaming).

Add the meat back in along with whatever sauce is being used, and continue to cook until everything's happy.

My usual finishing sauce is a combination of soy sauce, water, sugar, rice wine, toasted sesame seed oil, corn starch.

There is a FANTASTIC youtube channel for American Chinese featuring an old hand that knows what the fuck he is doing. I will try to find it for when you I get home from work, and will edit it into this comment if I do.

EDIT - The chiles are totally optional. You can leave them out altogether, leave them in but eat around them, or, if you are a heat freak like me, eat them whole along with everything else on your plate. If you just want a kiss of heat, toast them in the oil, and then remove and discard before adding your meat. You can get big bags of the right kinda dried chile at any Asian grocery for cheap.

EDIT - Some links!

So in reviewing, this guy's channel has some American Chinese, but a lot of authentic Chinese recipes as well. If nothing else, watch some of his stir fry videos just to check his technique. Very solid fundamentals, but you'll need a proper wok and a decent gas burner to do what he does.

Here's the channel: Siu's Cooking

Not sure what your setup is, but these things are fantastic if you don't have access to a decent gas range: Portable Butane Burner. These are also available (along with fuel canisters) at pretty much any Asian grocery, usually less than $20.

Here's another solid channel to browse: Happy Wok

Prior to turning yourself in, please seek legal aid from a community legal aid service. I'm unfamiliar with the processes in the US but this service may suit your needs: http://www.lafla.org/

If anything they may be able to help you gain an understanding of the best way forward with the fines etc. If there's an opportunity to apply for a payment instalment plan for the fines then they should be able to point you in the right direction.

Don't face this issue alone as you really really don't want to end up in jail. 2-3 weeks sounds okay now but there are serious ramifications once you get out, especially in regards to employment. Your current employer isn't going to be happy for you to just take 3 weeks off to go to jail. You need to keep your job.

Also in regards to living in your car and buying fast food, you could probably save a whole lot of money if you bought a little butane camper stove for about $20 (the butane refills are cheap as), a cheap saucepan and bought some veges from a farmers market. Tinned food will also work well with the stove. Easy to boil up some water and make instant noodles too if you are in a pinch.

One of these butane burners comes in handy too. They're cheap and store away for times when you have no power or just need one more burner.

Get a small butane burner. I got mine at an Asian food store, but they're available at camping stores & restaurant supply places and of course on line eg. http://www.amazon.com/Portable-Butane-Stove-Camping-Burner/dp/B000RA8V1S
The butane comes in a can about the size of a can of spraypaint. I think they burn hotter than my propane camper stoves, they are super portable and can be used indoors if you need an extra burner. There is no problem with soot.

I use two stoves very similar to these for camping. Fuel is a little hard to find, but cheap, easy to handle and lasts quite a while. They seem to put out more concentrated heat than the gas stove in my house, so water boils faster, and still have enough control to not burn food in a pan. The ignition works flawless, too.

I'm unsure about their indoor safety, mostly because of the warning printed on them. They state that they are approved for camping use outdoors and commercial indoor use only. No idea if thats just regulatory, or if commercial structures have standards for ventilation.

This is the exact model I have:

  1. Answered adequately by others, no additional comment :)

  2. Part of the game is not fighting the dust and just learning to accept it will get on everything. You don't need to ziplock everything to protect it - just get dusty my friend! I usually clean the tent out (shake the blankets outside etc) every couple days.

  4. Cooking is fine, and I'd go crazy if I couldn't make hot food! Get one of those small asian butane stoves. They are only like $15 or $20 and I've had the same one for almost a decade of burns. Army surplus stores or Asian markets are good places to buy locally. Cook a meal at home first with it to get the hang of it. Two or three butane canisters will last a week. (BUTANE - not propane). I cook inside my tent with lots of ventilation to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning. (The wind makes it hard to cook if you are outside).

  5. Best to read up the various threads about what foods to bring. It really depends what your cooler situation is and how dedicated you will be to buying ice. And I can't stress this enough: your food preferences and taste will change once on playa. Normally I like protein bars but on playa they are disgusting for example. Granola bars, however, are great. Salty food is good. Fresh veggies are great but take up a lot of precious room in the cooler and are likely to get smushed/bruised/damaged by other bulkier items.

I have only used then on gas ranges or this little gem. But I think you will be fine. If anything, when you are the at restaurant supply store, grab one of those burners and then you can break it out whenever you need to get some consistent heat either for stir frying, making eggs, or heating up that cast iron to get a nice sear on your steak. That little butane burner is a life saver.

u/slowestmojo · 1 pointr/FireflyFestival

Does this mean something like this won't be allowed? Is butane a flammable liquid? Sorry if this is a really stupid question, but I don't want to bring a huge grill for just my friend and I.

u/who-really-cares · 1 pointr/AskCulinary

I find the portable butane burners to be unbearably under powered and the butane canisters seem to get used up really quickly.

I would go with a propane cooktop that you can hook a 20lb propane tank up to. And find a place you can fill the propane tank, instead of exchanging it. It's often like 1/2 the cost to refill.

EDIT: One of these would be even more fun.
