• Beat the Eggs well along with the Scallion, Sugar, Pepper, and the Fish Sauce, if using.
• Heat a tablespoon of Oil, or rendered Pork Fat, in a pan over medium-high heat.
• Add the Tomatoes and stir-fry until they have broken down slightly, and thrown off a good deal of juice.
• Add the egg mixture and slowly, and gently, begin to fold and scramble so as to produce nice large curds of almost fully-cooked egg.
• Remove from the heat and serve while still piping hot.
