Butter Garlic Naan is a popular type of Indian bread, made with all-purpose flour. Once cooked,  it is seasoned with a butter-garlic mix and served fresh with gravy. It is popularly paired with chicken tikka masala or butter chicken. 

Tikka is available in several varieties, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian. It is a smashed ingredient, mixed with masala and fried in oil. Chicken tikka is one of the most loved dishes among Indians.

Tandoori is a non-vegetarian dish made with meat or chicken. It is marinated for some time and then cooked in a tandoor, a clay oven. Tandoori is often served as a starter during the meal with a spicy red chutney.
