# Instrucciones:

02 - Add the bell peppers and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
03 - Stir in the eggplant and zucchini, season lightly with salt, and cook until slightly softened, about 10 minutes. Add more oil if the vegetables absorb it too quickly.
04 - Add the tomatoes and sugar (if using). Stir well, lower the heat, and simmer gently for 20–25 minutes until all vegetables are tender and the mixture is thick.
05 - Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
06 - For the traditional version with egg, fry eggs in olive oil and serve one on top of each portion of pisto.
