Fry the finely chopped onion and bell pepper in a large pan and season with sugar, garlic, and a little pepper. Once the onions and bell pepper are fried, fry the rice briefly and then deglaze with the vegetable stock. Put the lid on and simmer on low heat until the rice is cooked. Meanwhile, fry the finely chopped onion in a saucepan. Add the tomato paste and fry briefly. Add the passata, heat through, and season with salt, pepper, and sugar to taste to give the sauce a slightly sweet taste. Once the rice is cooked, stir in the tomatoes and cream cheese until smooth. Divide the rice among the plates and pour the tomato sauce over it.
