Love my Tandoor
« on: November 22, 2008, 05:13 PM »
I've been cooking with my tandoor again
It's just the weather for it
I actually got hot
I made some tandoori rotis
Dead easy ingredients :- chapatti flour and water
Slap them on the wall of the tandoor, and they blister and cook.
They are amazing with salty spicy food
Particularly brilliant with dhalls
The naans turned out well and the tikka seemed to disappear as soon as it was cooked!!

Hehe haldi!

Your subject line reminded me of the song by Peter Shelley called..'Love me love my dog', except here it's 'Love me love my Tandoor!'.

Anyway, you are a lucky sod having a tandoor in this weather. You are right it's perfect for it. Great pics too.

I have a small porch where most normal people would hang their coats.
I keep it there, and hang the skewers, instead

Thanks SS and UB for your comments

Saturday was really cold
Someone told me we got down to -4c last night and there was a thick frost to prove it.
I'd prepared the tikka and the naan dough last night.
I used a little too much colouring, or was it that Deggi Mirch?
It's a very bright colour, is it natural?
I've checked the packet for ingredients and it is extremely vague.
It's the first time I've used Deggi Mirch.
The tikka was really tasty

I didn't want to waste the tandoors heat, so I dried a load of washing on it after cooking!!!

Hi PP
      I got it from here
http://www.tandoori-oven.com/

They've changed hands since then, though
I don't think they make the size, of tandoor, I bought
I've had so much enjoyment from it, but it does stink the house out
It's smokey, even though it runs off gas
I dread to think how many fumes, you'd have with a charcoal tandoor
I think Bruce Edwards said he had one like that
You really need some sort of an extractor
Having a few windows open, isn't a good alternative
I wish someone else would buy one
It's a bit of a lonely pursuit
I know loads of Asian people, and none of them have one either.

they've had that 'new domestic range coming soon' banner for a long time now.

i have a tandoori-q charcoal oven and it is superb although i think i would prefer the control that gas gives.
