Thank you for sharing this video for last 4 years am been watching videos about how to make tandoor oven am so obsessed about tandoor this is the best tandoor to make roti or naan i will be making mine soon inshallah looks like you live in Yorkshire Bradford Thank you 🙏 😁😁🇬🇧
As some others have commented it is the best homemade tandoor on YT 👏
Thank you Mark your kind comments are very much appreciated! Wishing you all the very best!
Is it still going ? What upgrades have you done or is there any advice now in hindsight ? I’m thinking of making one this weekend
Ive watched a few videos on how to make a tandoor from plant pots. Your's is by far the best. Thank you. I am going to make one of these bad boys
Nice work - first time I have seen the seasoning recipe.
Good video, I used the same dustbin and pots and mine is identical, sprayed the exterior with heat resistant matt black paint from Screwfix, I’m going to weld four supermarket trolley wheels to the bottom for easy transportation. All in all cost around £100 to build. I found using wood left soot on the inside of the Tandoor, so used a weed burner to start the charcoal off and it worked fine. Also treated mine with a water/salt solution and wiped with a soft rag now and then, the wider neck pots make it easier for naans too.
Sweet! All my snobby neighbors with their wood fired pizza ovens will be so jealous!
Brilliant thank you so much ! My New Zealand back yard will have one soon!
I have watched several diy Tandoor builds but yours is the most helpful! Thank you!
Thank you Sir. Going to make one. I really liked how you seasoned it.
I have looked at a lot of videos on how to make a tandoor this is the best one
Thanks a lot bro
AFG647 thank you for your such kind comments
Owesome idea, thank you for sharing
Excellent build and excellent presentation and tutorial. I looked for you Naan video and couldn't find it. I really hope you would make more videos.
I will be soon! Have you subscribed to my channel? Please do if you have not that way you will see the new videos when I upload them
This is a great video! I am looking forward to seeing you cook with this tandoori oven.
Your technology is mind blowing bro thanks a lot.
Many thanks for a lovely lesson in tandoori oven making .Loved it
Very impressive & professional looking tandoor. I think I might give it a go
I would like a Tandoori oven like that! It could be my diy during lockdown👍
This is just amazing!!! I’m going to be making one very soon
Some excellent ideas and a great finished look to the project. Ma sha Allah!
Looks fantastic, great.looking Tandoor!
Very clear and in detail excellent im going to copy your idea thanks so much.
So happy i found this, thank you! I was so intimidated for ages to build by own but you made it look so easy with very simple materials :) Next project 100%. Subbed :D
Thank you soo much! If you have any questions just ask I will be more than happy to help!
@@cookingwithsanj1251hi where did you get the clay pots from please
Looks good - Any chance f an update. I was wondering if it's still in use as I would have imagined the terracotta pots would have eventually cracked due to the constant changes in temperature. Cheers Ken
Hi greetings from Normandy , Great vid Sanj very well executed and looks very professional , i have been dithering for ages about doing one i have my pizza oven which is great but i have always wanted one of these but there are a lot of vids that are more about the person who is doing them , this vid is what i have been looking for i will make it your way , well done great job and thanks.
Thank you Nigle for your kind comments! Yes please do have a go at making this! And if you have any questions drop me a message! Wishing you the very best! Sanj
Sanj that's brilliant, thanks for the video.
MashaAllah very good I really like this and easy way MashAllah
Excellent video -few questions
1. What is the best way to repair the tericotta pot in the event of a crack?
2 What is the make of fire cement and does It stick to the metallic bin ?
3 . What flour make and type (plain or self raising) you use for making nan ?
4 , What is the wall temperature for making nan bread?
5 , Will you be doing a video on making nan and rotis ?
At last a well planned proper job ....well done! perhaps hydraulic lime (NHL 3.5) will be better than cement at bottom....cement will crack badly. why haven't you done a video using the tandoor?
Great video, did you think about doing some kind of catch tray on th bottom for emptying out the ashes?
Nice one ! That’s a project I’m going to try ... looks like Halifax from the stone in the buildings behind you .. 👍🏽
Very close! Lol Bradford! Excellent please do let me know how you get on! All the very best!
Such a professional job well done Pa Ji
Wonderful !
Very nice looking Tandoor with good proportions. Roughly how much did you spend and is fire cement safe to cook on. I’m thinking of any fumes etc.
*Best video ever!* Subbed!
This is brilliant, thanks!
This is so cool. There is something awesome about building your own cooking equipment. I look forward to the followup video with you cooking on it.
LiveOVErdrive thank you! Really appreciate your kind words!
Lovely job Sanj! I made a similar one from two old oil drums but it isn’t as nice as this!
Hi. Is it necessary to cut the base of the lower pot?
Beautiful oven!
This is sik brav!! You should come around ours and do a cooking special 👍
Amazing job .. but I would recommend to put a layer of non toxic clay/ utensil grade clay . The pot and cement would contain harmful chemical or lead
Can you explain how you would add that and where you can find utensil grade clay? What brand do you recommend?
Hey! Great work and nicely done video, however I couldn't understand the last part where you were applying something on the walls of the tandoor.
Real_jungle_King hey! Thanks for your message. So the last bit is where I am conditioning the walls of the tandoor by using yoghurt and mustard oil, you apply this to the walls so that this is taken in so that the clays pots are then ready to allow your naans to stick and peel off easily, this treatment is done to all tandoors. Hope this helps
@@cookingwithsanj1251 Thank you so much.
Good Job! I will do this.
I'm having one of them. Thanks Sanj
J Maudsley lol no problem at all! I make and sell them also so if in the Uk give me a shout if you do want to buy! However have a go at making one! It’s great fun!
@@cookingwithsanj1251 Much better idea. How much do you sell for? I'm moving house at the moment but would be good to go when moved into the new place.
J Maudsley aww no worries at all! I sell them for £250
Well done Sanj, fine job there, looking forward to see more videos
This looks brilliant
hazza123live thank you!!
Very nice. Thanks Brother
Awesome !! How do you empty the ashes ??
Sandeep thank you! Really appreciate it! Just scrap them out of the air hole at the bottom!
Hi mate lovely video
Brilliant job I have 1 question where can I find them pots b&q!
Hi Sank, great video, I am in the process of ordering items to build. Just one question, what would be your thoughts on using vermiculite on the base covered with fire cement rather than bricks?
Hi! Yes you can but be careful as let’s say if your skewer fell into the tandoor it will make a whole so yes by all means try it but I would say bricks or vermiculite bricks would be better also bricks gives weight to the tandoor so no chance of it being knocked over by accident, hope this helps
Hi Sanj looks great, would u come to Leeds to build one!?
I live in Bradford! So not too far, I do make them to sell also as I’ve had a few requests!
How did you stop the vermiculite from spilling out from the vent from between the pots and bin? Thanks, otherwise useful video 👍
He used fire cement when doing the blocks
Hi Sanj. Great video, thank you. Questions: was it the 90ltr bin from B&Q, 5 litre fire cement from same and just 10ltrs vermiculite?
Yes that’s correct! Let me know how you get on and if you get stuck give me a shout!
Amazing
ᴀᴅɪʟ thank you!
WoW
Thank you!
Hey Sanj, great video very easy to follow, I did everything you showed turned out well, only thing when heating initially with wood, the top pot cracked and a piece fell off, also the inside was covered in soot, and was coming onto the nans, could I just plaster with fire cement? What would you suggest?
Yes if it’s a small piece then u can fill it with fire cement, and I will be doing a video soon on how to condition your tandoor properly
Hi thanks for the video ,do you do pizza in your tandoor ,how about a demo.
Hi Robert! Yes I do, do a pizza in the oven, I hope to get out a video out soon demonstrating that! 😊
Hi Sanj, cool video, would you please give us an update? some folks say they crack after a while , is that right? I am also in a process of making one but with a little different. I am using 55 gallon drum and 2 22 in. pot . I am waiting for my clay to arrive to use clay instate of cement. Thanks.
Yes there will be hairline cracks any tandoor will get them, but you just fill them up with fire cement or clay.. hope this helps! And well done on having a go at making it!
@@cookingwithsanj1251 Thank you!
Be careful, apparently heating up galvanized metal to higher temperatures can give off Zinc fumes.. maybe use something other than the metal bin.
Great vid. Do you leave the air vent open all the time or are you able to close it to minimise heat loss?
RKP 241111 yes I do it’s to allow the air to keep coming in to keep the charcoal hot you can close it if you feel the tandoor is hot enough or to lower the temp
Good job do you Cooke nan bread in or not
Yes of course you can, I have and it works really well! Just not had chance to do a video on it but hope to do a few Tandoor cooking videos soon!
Hi sanj what's the best way to use the fire cement? Did you add water? It doesn't seem so easy to use straight out of the tub.
Hey! So when applying it spray a little water from a spray bottle and it will nicely smooth out, hope this helps
Awesome
Brother can I use sand or soil to fill the surrounding gap because that is much cheaper as I am building a large tandoor in a huge barrel oil drum.
Brother, you can but it will make it mega heavy, if your not going to be moving it then use sand but don’t use soil, use kiln dried sand and not building sand.. hope this helps, I’ve also made a big one oils drum size and they do get heavy I put wheels on that one though
@@cookingwithsanj1251 Thank you so much and I wish you all the best. You got one more subscriber
@@cookingwithsanj1251 Brother, I bought two large terracotta pot did everything the way you did but unfortunately the top pot cracked in many places after first use.
@@khanos73 hey brother! Is it hairline cracks? If they are hairline cracks you will get them, but if it is very big cracks or if the pot has broken then it could be due to the sand, but you should not get big cracks only hairline cracks which are normal
@@cookingwithsanj1251 Is not a normal crack the pot is broken in many places, #now I made another one but naan always gets stuck to the walls. I am about to give up.
Hi Sanj, have you cooked anything in this yet and made any videos? Also, why did you decide to put fire cement at the top in the end?
Hi, what size metal bin did you use?
Hey Sanj, great vid 👍. One question - any particular reason why you cut the bottom off the flower pot and then use fire cement to place coals on top of? Why not use the base of flower pot as a whole pot and place coals on that instead of cutting off bottom and using fire cement? Genuinely interested in your reason as going to make one and looking for advice 😀 Cheers
Hi Gen! Aww thank for your kind comments, yes there is a reason for cutting off the bottom of the pot, if the bottom of the pot got too hot it could crack the base and the cracks would travel up the walls of the pot, you will get hairline cracks in the walls every tandoor does however the heat of the coals directly on the base of the pot would crack the bottom of it, hence if you use bricks and fire cement or fire bricks and cut the bottom of the pot it means there is no risk of the pot being damaged as the bricks and fire cement can deal with the heat and hold the heat which will keep your tandoor hot! Any more questions please just give me a shout! All the very best! 😊
Do we need yogurt and mustard oil every time when we light up the tandoor
Karan Arora no not every time just once in a while to condition the clay pot
Well done 👍
Best tutorial so far,
A K thank you soo much your kind comments means a lot to me!
Does the metal shell get really hot when oven is on?
A K it does get hot! So do not touch, but it does not get glowing hot as the heat is retained inside due to the insulation
Very nice
Hey Sanj. Great video. How hot did the bin get when you were cooking?
matthew lawson very hot lol the outside of the bin was very hot to the touch so don’t ever touch it but it was not glowing hot! The insulation keeps the heat in so the inside is glowing hot. Hope that helps 😊
Thanks Sanj. Look forward to seeing some more videos
@@cookingwithsanj1251 would it be safer to get a larger size outer bin so there is more room for insulation? Would a clay outer bin also work instead of metal?
Paaji excellent
Thank you so much!
Where did you buy clay pot from?
Nice 1 👍🏼
Wow it's so amazing 👏👌🙂
Do you sell them? I'll buy one if you do absolutely brilliant
Thank you so much! Yes I do make them to order and sell them as I have had a couple of requests in the past. Where are you based?
@@cookingwithsanj1251 thanks I'm from Cardiff my Son is a qualified professional award winning chef and we are in the process of setting up a TV cooking show and are looking for quirky things to cook with and your Tandoor fits the bill

@@cookingwithsanj1251Hi thanks this afternoon if that's okay
What size is the bin? 40l?
Hi, just watched this, looks great.
2 Questions, do you have to have the little hole down below and can I use
A glazed pot outside rather than metal bin.
Loved your video
Yes you have to have the hole at the bottom to allow for airflow otherwise the tandoor will not work well at all, yes you can use as glazed pot also, hope this helps!
@@cookingwithsanj1251 oh thankyou for taking time to reply, much appreciated.
Looking forward to making mine x
The first pot....did you cut a flue hole in it also? I don't understand how it remains open
well the video is now 3 years old!
how did it hold up! is there anything you would change or had to change?
Hi will any size bin do? What size is ur bin
Does the outside of the steel can get hot while in use? Could a child get burnt by touching the outside while in use? Or is it warm to the touch only?
Jayant Mathur thanks for your message, like any bbq it will get hot and if a child or adult touch it they can get burnt, you have to be careful, it does not get glowing hot but it does get hot, hope this helps
@@cookingwithsanj1251 Thank you!
What type of sand did you use to fill the gaps between the fire bricks and the metal bin?
