I am trying to plot a 3d plot using surface function.
How can I change the color of the plot?

Looks like you might want to set the 'EdgeColor' to 'none'
figure()
surface(1:1000,1:1000,randn(1000))
view([30 60])
figure()
surface(1:1000,1:1000,randn(1000),'EdgeColor','none')
view([30 60])

The spacing between your values is so small that all you are seeing here is the EdgeColor. Try setting the color to 'none' and see if what you get is more like what you expected.
[X,Y] = meshgrid(-5:.5:5);
Z = Y.*sin(X) - X.*cos(Y);
surface(X,Y,Z);

% with no EdgeColor
figure
surface(X,Y,Z,'EdgeColor','none');
view(3)
