Preparation

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook until soft, about 7 minutes. Stir in the zucchini, tomatoes, sugar, salt and pepper. After about 5 minutes, add 1/4 cup water and simmer, stirring often, mashing down on the vegetables as they soften. (A potato masher is useful.) Add more water if it cooks out before the vegetables are soft.
  2. When the vegetables are done and the mixture resembles a chunky purée, taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add the eggs, stirring quickly to incorporate, and remove from heat.
