Trim fat from meat and cut meat into strips 2 x 1 1/4 inches. Heat oil in skillet, add meat; cook, turning frequently, until brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in water, onion, garlic salt and ginger. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 12-15 minutes for round steak, 5-8 minutes for sirloin. Add green pepper strips during last 5 minutes of simmering while meat simmers. Cook rice as directed.

Blend cornstarch, sugar and soy sauce; stir into meat mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute. Cut each tomato into 8 and place on meat mixture. Cover, cook over low heat just until tomatoes are heated through, about 3 minutes. Serve over rice.
