Thinly sliced beef sirloin and cubed eggplant are seared until browned and tossed in a glossy garlic and sesame glaze. The eggplant is cooked until tender and caramelized, allowing it to absorb the dark, savory liquid made from soy sauce and sesame oil. Served hot from the skillet, this dish offers a textured meal where the soft vegetable contrasts with the seared meat, finished with a mild heat from black pepper and red pepper flakes.
