or..do it outside. we use a turkey fryer camping, and our wok is the 100% in use tool from warming tortillas to cooking dinner. and it makes the best camp sink ever for doing dishes.
somehow my brother ended up with the good turkey fryer. it has a ring that fits the wok perfectly. mine is a suckass balancing act and that makes it kinda sketchy.

Screw that GO TO YOUR LOCAL THRIFT STORE...they have plenty of used WOKS. I saw a great one Carbon Steel and all for under $10. I bought an ATLAS 14 inch, flat bottom, Carbon Steel with lid for $4.00 (made in the USA).
I just do not need anymore Woks...and that is why I didn't buy that one for under $10..I did buy one of those Chinese Clay Pot cookery things that was there the same day though..I wanted to give it a try as doing something different.
I did convince some lady shopper to buy it though.
