Make a Real Indian Tandoor Oven with Terracotta Pots! Tandoori cuisine is one of the world's favorites. Although most of us think of Tandoori foods as Indian, it is a style used from the Caucasus, through Turkey and the Middle East to South Asia. The secret of Tandoor is the very high temperature achieved. Using charcoal or wood, burning inside the Tandoor, temperatures can reach 450°C (850°F)
The food is directly exposed to the flames and heat, resulting in simultaneous cooking of radiant heat, hot air, convection cooking and smoking of the oils, fats and food juices that drip onto the charcoal. This type of oven, fueled by coal or wood, cooks food through the radiant heat produced within the oven. If built correctly, your Tandoori oven can cook at 480 degrees Celsius or higher. The best thing about this pot for outdoor cooking is that it can maintain the desired cooking temperature even when a lot of strong wind blows.
