Alright, even though this is a shitpost, I do have a question about steak.
I've been a vegetarian for 18 years - just getting into trying meat now as I'm working as a chef. I've cooked and eaten chicken, duck, fish, lobster, pork and goat. They were all pretty good, duck was particularly great.
Steak however hasn't really impressed me. I cooked a sirloin the other day, basting it in butter, rosemary and garlic, but the taste and flavour to me was just overall a bit bland.
Any suggestions as to how I can cook it differently so that I can get a better flavour out of it, or possibly something to complement it?
Picture is the steak in question.

You did sear it correctly ?
Dominic Lee
I just left it to sear without moving it. First, one side for about 2 minutes, then the other side for about 3 (I think it was a smaller than usual sirloin).
After I seared the first side, it kind of curled up a little from the meat tightening, so the second side didn't evenly touch the pan.

Sear was done on a correct pan i guess (read non non-stick pan) ?

Oh that may be it, shit. Pretty sure I used a non-stick.
