This might be a bit off topic for this forum, and my question is kinda vague, but does anyone know any good recipes for indian themed sandwiches. (To give and example of what I mean, Upper Crust has a Chicken Tikka sandwich that I like)

Make a naan bread dough, roll it really thin and cut in to regular bread size/shape.
Lightly cook 1 side on a tava and set aside. Repeat this process so you have 2 slices of 1/2 cooked naan bread.

Lightly butter the uncooked sides of the naan, and place 1 face down in a Breville type sandwich toaster, add a couple of spoons of chicken tikka massala & rice, place the other naan uncooked side up and cook your toasty.

You can do the same with alternative bread doughs & fillings.

Funny you should say that, we've recently introduced toasties as part of our lunchtime menu and recently I had some Chicken Tikka Masala left over from a curry night.

2 slices of bread, buttered on both sides, cut the Chicken Tikka into slices, add a little Tikka masala sauce to make it moist.

Add Sliced Cheddar Cheese to one slice of buttered bread, spoon the Chicken Tikka on top, sprinkle some chopped Coriander on top, place the other slice of bread on top.

Get a flat pan and sprinkle a little oil on to it when hot. Toast the sandwich on both sides, the butter being on both sides of the bread give a wonderful toasty buttery flavour. Toast until the cheese has melted and the toast is lightly brown on both sides.

Then devour... I bet you start salivating before you have finished!!  ;D ;D

Going to make Lamb Bhuna and Bombay Aloo Pasties for lunch today

Naanwich is becoming popular, various fillings.
No brainer really, has to be a winner. ;D

A bit like a good American Sloppy Joe.

Excellent idea!

I had some tandoori chicken and a couple of taftoon naans left over from last night's dinner, so that sorted lunch out for this afternoon.

It only took minutes to butter and heat the naans, debone the chicken, slice up some red onion, tomato and cucumber, then throw it all together with some chopped coriander and a dressing of natural Greek yoghurt mixed with garlic chilli sauce.

Absolutely delicious and not a million miles away from an oversized Greek gyros pitta.
