Topic: Cheap Home made Tandoor Oven

[artistpaul]

Heres some pics of a cheap tandoor being used here in Turkey. ( If pics dont come out maybe a member will tell me how to )

Completely homemade

Inside liner was metal surrounded by cement / concrete

Wood fired

I had a meal from this tandoor cooked by the local woman owner - fab!

Regards all

Hi

That is one serious amount of surrounding concrete? must way 3 tonnes

What did they cook you? was it done on skewers like tikka is?

cheers

Hi Solarsplace

Yeah it must be heavy but as cement etc is cheap it wouldnt have cost much to knock it up.

Yeah I had 2 dishes from it, a lamb kebab done on skewers and a lamb and veggie stew cooked in an earthenware , lidded pot placed inside the tandoor some 4 hours before and slow cooked.
All accompanied with fresh flat breads ( almost like nans ) slapped onto the sides of the tandoor

VERY tasty all of it
