Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the 1 lb beef slices in a single layer and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp oil, then the 1 sliced onion, 1 julienned carrot, and 1 cubed eggplant. Stir-fry until vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5-6 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Return the beef to the skillet. Add 3 tbsp soy sauce and stir everything together, cooking for 1-2 minutes until the sauce coats the beef and vegetables.

  4. Step 4

    Serve the stir-fry over 2 cups cooked rice. Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired.
