Tandoor bread (Azerbaijani: Təndir çörəyi, Turkish: Tandır ekmeği, Persian: نان تنوری naan-e-tanuri, Tajik: нони танурй noni tanuri, Kyrgyz: тандыр нан tandyr nan, Uzbek: tandir non, Kazakh: тандыр нан tandyr nan, Uyghur: تونۇر نان, tonur nan, тонур нан) is a type of bread baked in a clay oven called a tandoor.[1][2]

In Pakistan, tandoor breads are popular especially in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab regions, where naan breads are baked in tandoor clay ovens fired by wood or charcoal. These tandoor-prepared naans are known as tandoori naan.[3]
