Ensure you are lighting the fire indoors or in a sheltered area.

Prepare a pit for the fire.

Use a plastic bag and matchsticks to start the fire.

Light the plastic bag and let it melt and drip into the pit.

Burn the entire plastic bag until it is done, ensuring there is charcoal in the pit.

Cover the melted plastic with charcoal to maintain the flame.

Take the setup outside to let the wind help with the fire.
