How to assign default value to a foreign key using fluent api?

I created two models using fluent api in my dbcontext(ToDo, Category) what I want to achieve is that whenever I create a new ToDo object, the default value for CategoryId is specified as an id for the ‘Default’ category that I successfully created previously, I still need that relationship to be non optional to be able to use cascade deletion, but so that if not specified in a request body, the value of categoryid always assigns to 1.
