street food vendor in an outdoor environment, likely a roadside or market area

street food vendor in an outdoor environment, likely a roadside or market area. The vendor, dressed in a dark shirt, is actively engaged in deep-frying food in a large, blackened wok-like pan. The pan is heated by a wood fire contained within a repurposed metal drum or container. The vendor is using long tongs to manage the food in the hot oil. A large bowl filled with light-colored food items, possibly raw or pre-fried ingredients, sits next to the cooking setup. To the left of the fire is a pile of firewood ready to be used. In the background, other people are visible, some standing around and observing the cooking process. There is a table with cooked food on skewers and a truck driving by in the background. The area appears somewhat crowded and typical of a bustling street food scene. The ground is dirt and concrete.
