A photograph of a traditional South Indian meal served on two green banana leaves placed on a tiled floor. The leaves hold small heaps of food: fried sweet and savoury snacks, a golden vada, dried fruit and nuts such as cashews and raisins, a fine grey powder, dark brown and black chutneys or jaggery preparations, coarse carrot salad, a spiced rice dish with lentils, grated coconut, a dollop of white rice, a red tomato pickle, crisp pappadams and a yellow vegetable curry. No people are visible, and the page's a person reference is not reflected in the image.
