Transfer lobster into pan, cover and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes (lobster cooks easily), stir occasionally. Turn fire down to low; add green onions, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, ½ teaspoon sugar, mix evenly to season. Cover for 2 minutes. Transfer to plate and serve as soon as possible, best when served right away.
