Try this new twist on an ordinary beef roast! Adding Asian flavors is a great way to curb your boredom with the same cuts of meat, and it’s so easy. Serve your roast over cauliflower rice or in a lettuce leaf for lunch leftovers. Fish sauce is used in a lot of Asian cooking. It adds a subtle (non-fishy) flavor to this recipe. Red Boat Fish Sauce can be found most places and is very pure.
