In this Badge Bit, you will make a stir fry. Basically, you're going to be cooking food in some type of fat. You use some type of wide round cooking container with low sides (e.g. a pan, wok, or even cast iron skillet) and some type of heat source (e.g. rocket mass heater, a stovetop, the sun)!  Throw your desired ingredients in your desired fat and cook it!

Some examples of stir fries:

Stir fries are usually made of the following (but you can use as many or as few ingredients as you want):
  - some type of fat (typically an oil, but could also be done with butter, lard, coconut oil, etc)
  - some type of protein (could be meat, eggs, beans, tofu, or something else)
  - some type of carbohydrate (could be rice, quinoa, potatoes, noodles, pasta, etc)
  - some hard vegetables (like onions, carrots, bell peppers, or celery)
  - some leafy vegetables (like spinach, kale, arugula, or spring greens)
  - some type of spices or herbs (like green onion, hot peppers, ginger, or garlic)
  - and maybe some type of topping (like crushed nuts, dried mushrooms, or coconut flakes)

Here are some permies threads on making stir fries:
  - How to do Vegan Wok Cooking
  - Water Velveting for Moist Meats
  - Cream of Yesterday (make a stir fry out of leftovers)
