Srilankan Tandir

In Sri Lanka, the traditional tandoor is commonly known as a “tandir” or “tandoor.” The term is used in the native language, Sinhala, as well as in other languages spoken in the country. Similar to other South Asian countries, the tandoor is used for baking various types of bread, such as naan and roti, as well as for preparing kebabs and other dishes. The specific terminology may vary, but “tandir” and “tandoor” are generally understood in Sri Lanka to refer to the clay oven used in traditional cooking methods.
