How to make Pho?

[Lightline]

Any one know how to make Pho?

[HEMAN]

it's basically a broth (mostly beef or chicken broth, you can use canned, but tastes tons better if you make the broth) with noodles. There are different types of Pho, but main one you can use thin slices of beef that are raw. They get cooked as you dip them in with the noodles and the broth.

Video was pretty correct til he got to instant noodle instead. Basically got a pot of water. Bring to a boil and add beef bones. The beef bones are only for flavor. Your gonna need to pick some beef cuts. I usually just get the shank steak cut finely. Keep this raw. I like beef tendon and oxtail and usually throw that into the pot aswell. Grill up an onion whole til the outside skin is charred and throw it in the pot. Add salt and some pho beef cubes (from asian supermarkets) for more flavor. Let it boil at a medium level for atleast two hours so the oxtail and tendon are soft. Thats pretty much how you make the soup. Very simple unless you wanna try to get fancy like the restaurants. Thats when you start messing with all the herbs.

The noodles are sold in packages and when you are ready to eat strain the noodles through a hot pot of boiling water quickly. Just soak enough to get the noodles soft. Dump it in a bowl add some chopped greeen onions and cilantro and a couple slices of whatever meat you chose. Make sure your soup is boiling hot when you put the soup into the bowl of noodles so the broth can cook the beef shank. Make sure you scoop some tendon and oxtail into your bowl. Thats the best part.... A squeeze of lime and a pinch of bean sprouts. Then you add the other ingredients however you like.
