Place over high heat and bring up to pressure (select tre pressure setting on an electric cooker and set the timer to 20 minutes). Fore a stove-top cooker, as soon as pressure is reached (the indicator will pop up), reduce the heat to the minimum to maintain pressure and time for 20 minutes. When the time is up, turn off the heat and allow the pressure to drop naturally for 10 minutes then use the valve to carefully release any remaining pressure.

When the time is up, turn off the heat and allow the pressure to drop naturally for 10 minutes then use the valve to carefully release any remaining pressure if necessary. Remove the lemongrass stalk and lime leaves and discard. If required add a pinch of sugar or a squeeze of lime to adjust the sweetness.
Transfer to a warmed serving dish and scatter over the peanuts, sliced red chilli and chopped coriander. Serve with rice and wedges of lime
