Broth

Noodles and Toppings

Method

Prepare the Broth

  1. 1

    Roast the Aromatics

    In a dry pan over medium heat, roast the onion and ginger until they are charred. This will enhance the flavor of the broth.

  2. 2

    Simmer the Broth

    In a large pot, add beef bones and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer. Add roasted onion, ginger, star anise, cinnamon stick, cloves, and fish sauce. Simmer for at least 2 hours, skimming any foam that rises to the surface.

  3. 3

    Season the Broth

    After 2 hours, taste the broth and add salt as needed. Continue to simmer for an additional 30 minutes.

Prepare the Noodles and Steak

  1. 4

    Cook the Noodles

    While the broth is simmering, cook the rice noodles (or fresh egg noodles) according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

  2. 5

    Slice the Steak

    Thinly slice the beef steak against the grain. Set aside.

Assemble the Pho

  1. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the broth is ready, strain it to remove the solids. In a bowl, add a portion of cooked noodles, top with raw steak slices, and ladle hot broth over the top to cook the steak.

  2. 7

    Add Fresh Toppings

    Garnish with fresh basil, bean sprouts, lime wedges, sliced chili peppers, and chopped green onions.
