Add beef and stir and fry for about 10 minutes.
Add 2-3 cups of water, bring to boil turn the heat to low and let beef cook for about an hour.
Peeled eggplants and cut them in pieces (5”.2”.1”)
It is better to cut the eggplants a few days earlier and set aside.
Sauté the precut eggplants in oil until all surfaces turn golden brown.
Put them in an appropriate pot add some turmeric and some broth from your beef that is already cooked or still is cooking (if no juice is left in beef add more water)

Sima has taught me a version of eggplant khoresh before. I like it a lot and have been cooking it very often!
