Pick the herbs off their stems, discard any damaged leaves and wash. Peel and finely mince the garlic. Remove the stems from the baby eggplants, wash, slice thinly and soak in salted water (this makes them crunchier). Slice the kumquats thinly as well.
02
Prepare the beef
Rub the beef with salt for about 5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water. Cut the beef into small bite-sized cubes.
