Place the tandoor on a flat, stable surface, away from flammable materials and drafts. Ensure the tandoor is at a safe distance from buildings and trees.

While the tandoor is heating up, prepare the food for baking. This can include meat, fish, vegetables, bread, etc. Marinate the meat or fish if required by the recipe.
Place the food on skewers or racks provided with the tandoor. Insert the skewers or racks inside the tandoor according to the manufacturer's instructions. Close the tandoor lid.
Set the timer for the recommended cooking time for each type of food. Periodically check the cooking process to avoid overheating or drying out the food. If necessary, turn the food for even cooking.
When the food is ready, remove the tandoor lid and carefully take out the skewers or racks with the cooked dishes using heat-resistant gloves.
Leave the tandoor open to cool naturally. Do not leave the hot tandoor unattended.
After the tandoor has completely cooled down, remove any ash and charcoal residues. Wipe the inner and outer surfaces of the tandoor with a damp cloth.
