tandoori roti
Indian charred bread
Tandoori roti is an Indian flatbread cooked in a tandoor, a cylindrical clay oven that reaches very high temperatures.
The bread puffs slightly and develops characteristic charred spots from being slapped against the oven's inner walls.
Simpler than naan—made without yogurt or egg—tandoori roti is a staple accompaniment to curries and grilled meats: Order some tandoori roti with the dal.
