She will need a decent wok burner. One of these will work wonders and,
more importantly, will keep that style of cooking outside where it
belongs. You won't believe the mess a wok cooker will make of your
conventional western style kitchen.

Really good for any style of wok cooking. I bought ours locally but she
could easily get one over there.

This one with its three ring burners seems a good bet. Friends of ours
have one of these.

It looks like it could handle anything you could throw at it. Cheap
enough so I might look into getting one of them.
