Your prompt
[DISH] styled on a weathered [MATERIAL] surface, shot in pure golden hour light streaming from one side, casting long warm shadows. Hero dish center, surrounded by its raw ingredients casually scattered with artistic intention, whole vegetables, fresh herbs, open spice jars, linen cloth, wooden spoon. Every surface texture hyperreal: wood grain, condensation droplets, herb oil sheen, char marks. Ingredient labels as small handwritten-style chalk or ink tags resting beside each item: "[INGREDIENT] — [origin, preparation]". Dish name in warm hand-lettered typography: "[DISH NAME]". Subtitle: "[TAGLINE]". Mood: Ottolenghi cookbook meets Italian farmhouse meets Sunday farmers market. Warm golden tones, long shadows, film grain, extraordinary and craveable.

When to use it
Use when a menu, cookbook or farm-to-table brand needs a warm, styled hero shot of a single dish with its ingredients around it.
How to get the best result
- Choose a homely dish over a plated tasting course; the skeleton adds whole vegetables, herbs, spice jars and a spoon.
- Pick a surface with visible grain, reclaimed oak or terracotta; it is shot close enough for the texture to carry.
- Keep the dish name to a few words and match it to the dish, since it is drawn as hand lettering rather than typeset.
Watch-outs
- Every ingredient tag, the hand-lettered name and the subtitle are on-image text; on Nano Banana keep each tag to a word.
- The ingredient control fills one tag; the model invents the rest, so check every tag's spelling before using the image.
