Ever since visiting a Vietnamese restaurant I have been craving Pho.
I did a bit of reading and came up with a simple home version.
It literally was so easy. Less than 20 minutes and it was on the table!
Originally I was planning to have it vegetarian, but the beef roast I had in the crock pot at the time was medium rare and smelled so good. I finely sliced off a few slices and placed on top of the Pho.
Rice noodles/sticks
Broccoli or cauliflower
Fresh coriander chopped
Red pepper or chilli
Soy or mung sprouts
Broth
1 litre Stock
1 star anise
1 red onion sliced
1 tsp chopped ginger
3 small garlic cloves chopped
1 tsp red curry paste
2 tbsp tamari (or soy) sauce
1 tbsp fish sauce
2 tbsp coriander stalks
1 tsp cracked pepper
Optional : Meat toppings
Quick fried chicken, pork or beef
Slow roasted beef finely sliced
Combine broth ingredients in a pot and bring to boil. Let it simmer on low while preparing the noodles.
In a separate pot boil water and add rice noodles and broccoli/cauli. Boil on medium heat for 6 minutes. Drain, rinse and add to the broth.
Bring to boil. Boil 1-2 minutes.
Serve into bowls and top with bean sprouts, pepper or chilli, coriander, and meat if desired.
Store any leftovers in the fridge and reheat, the taste will develop overnight.
