Please teach me how to cook asian food!

You can make sticky rice without the rice maker, althought they're cheap and easier. I have a copper pan that I boil water and rice together in to make mine. Just look up a recipe for "sticky rice" and you'll find that it requires cooked rice, rice vinegar (available at walmart) and a little bit of sugar. A lot of it is in the technique and how you allow the rice to air dry and stick together. A non-laquered wooden bowl is also nice, but you can get by without one.

Invest in a wok. Electric ones are kind of pricey, but typical metal ones will work quite well. Mine is a $12 pan from an Asian market that had to be tempered a bit, but it works nicely.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
