Step

Serve immediately and enjoy!

For a richer flavor, consider adding a dash of soy sauce or sesame oil at the end.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference, depending on the sweetness of the tomatoes.
Serve with steamed rice for a complete and satisfying meal.
A wok works best for this stir-fry because of the high heat it can handle. If you do not have a wok, use the largest skillet you have.
If you like a little spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of chili oil.
