Ang talong steak recipe na ito ay inihahanda tulad ng Filipino classic bistek. Sa halip na karne, talong ang ginamit namin bilang kapalit ng karne, na mas mabilis at mas madaling lutuin kaysa karne. Ang karneng mayaman sa protina ay kasalukuyang mahal at patuloy na tumataas ang presyo nito. Kaya mainam na maghanap ng mas mura at masustansyang mga alternatibo. Ang talong ay ang pinakamahusay na kapalit para dito. Ito ay mayaman sa maraming sustansya at may masarap na lasa tulad ng karne.

Kung nagda-diet ka, subukan itong talong steak o talong steak recipe. Ito ay mababa ang calorie, murang alternatibo sa orihinal na beef bistek Tagalog. Kung naghahanap ka ng Pilipino na walang karne na ulam, itong talong steak recipe ay mainam. Gayunpaman, dahil ang pangunahing sangkap nito ay talong, hindi ito magiging kasing lasado ng karne tulad ng beef bistek. Ngunit ang lasa ay maayos at sa tingin ko kapag sinubukan mo ito ay magugustuhan mo ito.
