Tandoori Mela

Tandoori and Tikka dishes are not curries. They are marinated, skewered and cooked in a clay oven which is fired with charcoal. Naan, the leavened bread, is also cooked in the clay oven. Tandoori dishes are served with a green salad and a mint sauce. Their taste is deliciously sensational and defies description. To go with the meal, and for perfect satisfaction, try a vegetable or curry dish.
