Beef Stir Fry with Broccoli and Aubergine

Last week, I had so much beef in our freezer because it was the only option in the wet market as all the other vendors were affected by the transport strike. So am left with no choice but to be creative of my dish. So I thought of making a beef stir fry with Broccoli and Aubergine.

In this recipe, will be adding more water to cook the Aubergine and make the sauce thicker because that's the way my kids like it. Also, will be using my favorite oyster sauce from Maggi, because in the kitchen, #AllWeNeedIsMagic.

Beef, cut into thin strips
Aubergine, sliced in thin quarters
Broccoli, sliced 
Onion, quartered

Procedure:

1. Pour about two teaspoons of vegetable oil in a pan, saute garlic and onion until brown.
