What is Tandoor?
A Tandoor oven is essentially a very large clay pot, often standing waist-high above the kitchen floor. The sides of a Tandoor oven curve inwards towards a centralized exhaust hole.
Temperatures in a Tandoor can approach 900°F, and it is common for Tandoor ovens to remain lit for long periods to maintain the high cooking temperature. The Tandoor design is something of a transitional form between a makeshift earth oven and the horizontal-plan masonry oven. The Tandoor oven is akin to a traditional pizza oven used in Italian restaurants or an open pit barbecue in American grills.
The Tandoor is used for cooking certain types of Indian & Middle Eastern foods such as Tandoori Chicken, Chicken Tikka and bread varieties like Tandoori Roti and Naan. Tandoori refers to a dish that is cooked in the Tandoor oven.

Biryani or Pulao?
Biryani is a set of rice-based foods made with spices, basmati rice and meat, fish, or vegetables.
Pulao is a dish in which a rice is cooked in a seasoned broth. The English term pilaf is borrowed directly from Turkish, which in turn comes from (Classical) Persian polo, Urdu pulao, and Hindi pulav.
The difference between biryani and pulao is that while pulao may be made by cooking the items together, biryani is used to denote a dish where the rice is cooked separately from the thick sauce (curry of meat or vegetables). The curry and the rice are then brought together and mixed resulting in a dish of the contrasting flavors of rice (which has a hint of the aromas and juices of the curry) and intensely flavored sauce and meat or vegetables.
