Is it possible to cook steak only using the sun? - I have no kitchen appliances.

[Alex Hogendorp]

Recently my city banned cooking appliances due to climate change and is recently planning to nuke the sun. But is it possible to cook a steak with just the sun itself. (Tinfoil and Mirrors are also banned so no sun lasers).

Yeah but you have to get really close for it to be effective.
Try standing on a ladder (outside of course) and holding the steak up to the sun as high as you can.

Don't forget to use a magnifying glass as well.

The good thing with beef is that you don't need to cook it. You can eat it raw, and it's perfectly healthy.
Otherwise, look into sink steaks and hot sand frying

Is it possible to cook steak only using the toilet lid or do i need the paper towel and lighter as well?

1. Wrap the steak in leaves of the Papaya tree
2. Bury in the desert under the midday sun
3. Wait 6 hours (Medium-Rare) or 9 hours (Well Done)
4. Season to taste

Here is a ridiculous contraption that could probably sear a steak in the right conditions.

Sand is all the seasoning I need

In Death Valley you can probably just leave it in direct sunlight if it's thin enough.

Those things are shockingly effective, as are these giant lenses

There's also leaving it in the car in a desert state like Arizona or Nevada.

If taking the question literally then that technically wouldn't be cooking using "only" the sun though.
