Re: Indian food thread
I worked bar in a couple of Indian restaurants back in Scotland a long time ago.
Naan bread factoid: The Tandoor is a cylindrical clay oven, open at the top, with super hot coals in the bottom. Naan is cooked in it by shaping hte dough, then you reach in and slap it on the inside wall of the tandoor. They pick it out with a metal pokey thingy when it's done. You can tell the guy who works the tandoor - one of his arms will be totally hairless & bald; the hair's constantly being singed off.
