Ingredients:

900g aubergine (eggplant) peeled and cubed
1 onion, finely chopped
3 fresh tomatoes, chopped
3 tsp tomato paste
6 tbsp oil
1 dried fish, flaked and de-boned
salt and black pepper, to taste

Method:

Fry the aubergine in the oil until lightly brown then add the onions and tomatoes and stir. Cook until the onions just soften (about 4 minutes) then add water to cover along with the dried fish and season with salt and black pepper.

Bring to a boil and add the tomato paste. Cover the pot and reduce to a simmer, cooking for about 30 minutes, or until the aubergine is tender (stir frequently and add more water as required). Serve with rice and a hot sauce.
