Prepare the marinade by combining all of the mardinade ingredients. Reserve a little of the marniade for the greens.
Marinate the meat and eggplant for 10 minutes, and drain. Keep the marinade.
While grilling the eggplant on both sides in a little vegetable oil, heat a wok very hot and cook the greens until they soften. Add the reserved marinade and then arrange on serving plates.
Add a little vegetable oil seasoned with sesame oil to the wok and cook the sliced mushrooms with the sliced spring onions for a couple of minutes and reserve in a small dish.
Cook the meat very quickly in the wok with remaining oil.
