Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large pot, combine the broth, charred onion, charred ginger, star anise, cinnamon stick, and cloves. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for at least 1 hour, up to 2 hours for a more developed flavor.
  2. While the broth is simmering, prepare the rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  3. After the broth has simmered, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve, discarding the solids. Return the strained broth to the pot, then stir in the fish sauce and palm sugar or brown sugar. Bring the broth back to a gentle simmer.
  4. To assemble the pho, divide the cooked rice noodles among four serving bowls. Top each bowl with the thinly sliced meat or tofu. Pour the hot broth over the meat or tofu, which will cook it in the bowl. If using tofu, ensure it is pre-cooked.
  5. Serve the pho with a platter of the fresh herbs, lime wedges, and sliced peppers on the side, allowing each person to garnish their bowl to their taste. Offer Sriracha and hoisin sauce for those who prefer a spicier or sweeter flavor.
