A young woman wearing a red headscarf, blue jeans and a grey sweatshirt sits on a low stool, cooking small, round balls in a pot of oil over an open fire. The fire is fueled by wood, and the pot sits directly on top of it. She uses a slotted spoon to gently move and turn the balls as they cook. The woman looks thoughtfully at the food, occasionally resting her chin on her hand. To her left are two stacked buckets, the top one containing a light-colored batter. Around her are other containers, a small table, and various items scattered on the ground. The setting appears to be an outdoor cooking area.
