Tikka is a mild form of indian Curry, we Brits think its a proper indian dish, but in fact, most in India dont know what the hell a Tikka is, because it was invented by indian immigrants for the british who found most of the traditional curries too spicy (at the time of introduction around the 50s and 60s, we are more acustomed to it now)
That and most of India's population are not big meat eaters, partly out of relegious principles and poverty in some parts, but also because their veggie dishes are a damn sight tastier than most.
