Hot curries get something of a bad rap as tasteless in many ways. Seen as just a vessel for unnecessary heat and not enough taste, they're also quite often associated with drunken louts ordering the hottest thing on the menu. It's a shame really, hot doesn't mean tasteless and those drunken louts inspired possibly one of the greatest comedy sketches ever - "Bring me the blandest thing on the menu"
To go about proving that hot isn't tasteless, vindaloo is my go to dish.
