In a commercial kitchen located in Kasri Arifan, Uzbekistan, a dark, round-bottomed pan, containing multiple pieces of seared meat or poultry, sits atop an active gas burner on a stainless steel commercial stovetop. A large, bright orange-yellow flame erupts from the pan, enveloping its contents. A human hand, visible on the right, firmly grips a long-handled metal ladle, which is partially submerged within the flaming pan, indicating an ongoing cooking action such as stirring or flambéing. The stainless steel stovetop features visible blue control knobs on its front panel. In the background, several other large, dark-colored pans, one with a long wooden handle, are positioned on adjacent burners or resting on the counter. A smaller, dark pot, a metal colander, and another ladle are also visible on the stainless steel counter surface. Further back, a white tiled backsplash delineates an elevated counter holding two large, lidded metal containers. Distant, out-of-focus dark tables and chairs suggest an adjacent dining or storage area. The floor beneath the stovetop is composed of white tiles, showing some moisture and general wear.
