Reverse seared steak isn’t something I do very often. I usually sear first and then finish off the cooking in oven.

Dedicated to SARS-COV-2 which causes COVID-19 because I got home late and didn’t have time to cook the steak by sous vide.

Triple pork fried cauliflower rice sounds a bit weird but it was the best I could come up with at short notice.
