Lets Talk Curry / Re: Curry wrong(?)

How so? It was a Bhuna recipe (that's what the recipe page said). I just modified it by using tinned toms instead of fresh.

Just saying hi. A relative newbie to cooking, but eager to learn. 
P.S. I posted a thread on the 'let's talk curry' section, if anyone wants to check it out 'curry wrong(?)'.

Lets Talk Curry / Curry wrong(?)
January 05, 2016, 08:20 PM
Hi,
I'm new to cooking curry's, and tried a recipe I found online (a modified Bhuna). The smell of the curry was wonderful, but when I ate it, there was practically no taste at all, it was very bland. I was wondering where I went wrong? Recipe I used is below.
2 onions chopped
4 garlic cloves
25g root ginger
veg oil
2 tsp chilli flakes
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp ground turmeric
2 tsp garam masala
1 tin of chopped tomatoes
3 chicken breasts diced
Fried chopped onion, whizzed the garlic and ginger in a blender, added to the onion, fried. Added the spices and chilli flakes, fried a few mins more.
Added the chopped toms, and brought to the boil, added the chicken, then simmered for 30/40 mins.
Smell was wonderful, but practically no taste? I added salt at the end.
