What makes Indian tandoor dishes unique?

Accepted Answer

A tandoor is a very hot clay oven. Meat, paneer and vegetables are marinated in yoghurt and spices and cooked on skewers, so they char outside, stay juicy inside and take on a smoky flavour. Naan is baked on the tandoor wall for its blistered, fluffy texture. Banyan Tree's tandoor dishes include tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, lamb seekh kebab, tandoori fish, paneer tikka and tandoori mushroom.
