This image captures an overhead view of a large, round metallic cooking pot filled with a prepared meal, located in Zango-ndaji, Nigeria. The pot contains a vibrant orange-red stew base, characteristic of palm oil and pepper/tomato paste. Within this base are numerous light yellow, granular clumps identified as ground melon seeds (egusi), thoroughly mixed with dark green leafy vegetables. Several bone-in pieces of protein, consistent with fish or chicken, are visible throughout the dish. A metallic serving ladle with a dark handle is partially submerged in the lower right section of the stew, resting against the pot's interior wall. No individuals are present, and no specific actions or interactions are depicted beyond the static presentation of the food.
