Cover the pot and let it steam for an additional 5 minutes.

In a separate pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat.

Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in chopped tomatoes and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.

Add groundnut paste, stirring to combine with the tomato mixture.

Season with salt, pepper, and spices to taste.

Simmer for 10 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
