Curry Masala - How do you make yours?

Re: Curry Masala - How do you make yours?

i put in oil, sliced onions and 2tbs garlic & ginger paste and leave the onions to get really soft like 10-15 mins on a low flame
then i put in some water and leave it with the lid on for some more time
after like again 10 mins i put in salt and leave it again for 5 mins ( always depending how soft the onions have got ) and if the water has dried
if the onions are the way i want them i put in dhania powder,haldi, sliced green chilli and some red chilli powder or red chilli flakes

all that then gets bhoonifyed till a bit oil comes up but i do that for like 5 mins or so
then i put in 2 big spoons of chopped tomatoes , bhoonify again till oil comes up then i put in some water and leave it with the lid on for 5 mins (till tomatoes have gone a bit soft )

after that i add more water and use a blender to make a really smooth paste ( liquid ) and then add chicken or whatever i want to make ..

( I know its really time consuming and there are definitely quicker ways of doin it, but i always only get good feedback whenever i cook so never thought of changing anything )
