Vika, you can't cook with an open flame unless you're using a reflector 
arrangement of some kind (rocks, foil, heralds) to deflect
and redirect the heat of the fire to cook your food.  Very little control of 
the heat with that method.  You want to cook OVER coals  of a burnt down 
fire instead of flames or you'll be scraping carbon from the inside and 
outside of your pan and warp it to boot.

The amount of ash on the coals will regulate the heat for you.
