The image depicts a close-up, overhead view of white, irregularly cut slices of root vegetable, likely yam or cassava, deep-frying in shimmering oil within a dark, well-used metal wok or deep frying pan. The pan is positioned on a stove burner, with a portion of a white stovetop and its metal grate visible at the top edge of the frame. The oil is actively bubbling, indicating heat. Beneath the pan, a small section of a brightly patterned fabric, possibly a table cloth or wrapper, with red, blue, green, and yellow floral designs, is visible on the left, resting on a tiled surface. No people are visible. The scene is located within a kitchen in Hotoro South, Nigeria.
