Instructions

  1. Along with the ginger, onion, garlic, star anise, cinnamon, sugar, fish sauce add the broth to a pan. Boil the broth, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain, then return the soup to the pan.

     

  2. Soak the rice noodles in a large bowl of boiling water and leave to soften for about 3 minutes. Drain and set aside.

     

  3. Slice the beef. To achieve lovely thin slices of pho beef we recommend partly freezing the beef first (or using frozen meat and slicing from partly defrosted).

     

  4. Divide the drained rice noodles, raw beef slices to the bowls. Cook the raw beef, which should still be a little pink.

     

  5. Serve garnished with bean sprouts and basil. Allow everyone to season their bowl with as much fresh chilli, lime or lemon juice, chilli sauce and hoisin sauce as they like.
