  1. Place a pan over medium to high heat and let it warm up. Add the pork and sauté for 1-2 minutes.
  2. Next, add the grated tomatoes and sugar, stir with a wooden spoon, lower the heat, and simmer until the sauce thickens and the tomato juices evaporate.
  3. In the meantime, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them. Pour the eggs into the sauce and continuously stir with a spoon until the eggs are cooked.

Notes

  • Chef’s tip: It's very important to evaporate all the moisture from the tomatoes so that the kagianas thickens properly.
