It is an Indian version of clay ovens which
is also used in many other parts of the world with different names and in
different shapes. The Tandoor oven is actually a 3 feet pot made of clay. The
outer layer of this pot is made of insulated material, mostly cement. To use
this oven first coal is burnt and placed beneath the pot. Then the marinated
food is put on skewers and placed inside the Tandoor.
How
it works?
Tandoor oven is quite different from your
grill or any other type of cooking in the way it works. In normal grill, food
is put on the skewers and then these skewers are placed on grill. The food is
cooked till it gets slightly charred and at one time only one side gets cooked
which is not the case with Tandoor oven. The fire is made beneath the pan which
means the food does not come directly in contact with fire. It does not get
burnt or charred the way it does in conventional grills. Secondly the air
inside the pot gets heated in Tandoor which helps the dishes in cooking evenly
all the time, which means you do not need to change sides again and again to
make sure the food is evenly cooked.
