Heat the remaining oil in a pot, add the chopped onion, and cook until soft.

Stir in the paste and season with salt and freshly ground pepper.

Pour in the stock and the coconut milk, stir, and bring to the boil.

When boiling, add the cinnamon stick, dark soy sauce, and palm or Demerara sugar.

Stir in half the peanuts, the chopped aubergines, and the potatoes. Bring to the boil with the lid on.

Once boiling, put the inner pot in the outer container and shut the lid.

Leave to cook without power for a minimum of four hours but longer if you wish.

To serve, squeeze a little lime juice over and sprinkle with the remaining peanuts.
