A favourite starter is Tikka Tukra
Chicken Tikka with Cheddar cheese slices melted on top.

Very simple, just cover the tikka with Kraft singles or any cheddar slices.
pop in the Microwave for a minute, add a bit salad on the side. Luvvly Jubbly.

You can get this in some BIR's in my neck of the woods.(Very Popular)

I think it looks nice. Thanks chewy.

You can never go wrong with melted cheese, so I am keen to try this. Although I am somewhat dubious of how the two will go together!

I think this might work well with real Cheddar cheese, not sure about the plastic cheese.
Cheers Chewy,

LOL, Cheese on toast and on top of burgers works great, Chicken Tikka also works great with salad and Raita/mint sauce etc....

Combining the two? hmmmmm..... I'm thinking you must be in that region Ramirez!!! lol  ;D

It's like combining Rice Pudding with Peanut butter sandwiches :)

However!! Having said that, I do have a motto in my life to never discount anything until I have tried it. My motto is..... Try it once and twice if you like it :)

So yes I will give it a go..... :)

I'd give that a go!  ;) ;D

I tried this last night, after cooking the tikka for the Saturday night curry, and it was rather nice. Not sure I would have it regularly because, to be honest, there is no need to add anything to the wonderful taste of tikka. It was nice in the same way that most things with melted cheese are nice - this was no exception. :)

I have put grated cheddar cheese (or any sharp cheese) into a tikka marinade (blades) and it tasted lovely, then just cook as normal.
