Tandoor oven has multiple uses in preparing traditional Indian dishes around the world. It consists of a large, vase-shaped oven made of clay, which is highly popular in Asian and some African cuisines. Tandoors are primarily used to bake flatbreads like roti and naan, but they are also utilised to impart a smoky or charred flavour to dishes featuring meat, fish, paneer and vegetables. The thick clay walls of the tandoor absorb and store heat from the lower section. Recently, a content creator on the Instagram page ‘@indianfoodvlogs21’ shared a video demonstrating how tandoor mud is made from scratch. In the video, a wide cylindrical body made of clay with a tapering neck is placed inside an iron container.

Once the filling is compacted, they let it dry before finally selling it to customers. The caption beside the video read, “Art of making Tandoor Mud Oven from Scratch.”
