THE TANDOOR

Heart of Indian Cooking

Tandoor – known to the western world as ‘Tandoori Oven’ is a curved cylindrical pot made of different kinds of clay or ceramics. Used for centuries in India. The new modern Tandoor oven is now used the world over.

Traditionally run on wood and charcoal this wonderful concept of live fire cooking equipment now uses charcoal, gas or electricity to cook food known the world over as ‘Tandoori Food’

With heat as high as 450 degree celsius or 900 degree fahrenheit, combined with the convection, convention and radiant heat transfer the food is cooked very fast thus locking juices inside and giving cooked moist food that tingles ones taste buds.

The walls of the tandoor absorb a lot of heat and result in giving flat breads the flavor one never misses – the shape of the tandoor pot ensures that the heat is trapped and circulated in a manner that the food on the skewer is heated from all sides including from the inside by the hot skewer – so the food not only cooks from outside but also from inside resulting in a beautiful experience.
