This authentic delicious Beef Pho recipe is worth a try!

Full recipe video with step-by-step instruction (including my cooking tips)

Ingredients:

  • 3.2 lbs bones marrow (beef/pork bone is ọkay, but beef bones/ oxtails are more preferred and popular for Pho broth)
  • 2 Onions & 1 Ginger
  • Pho Spices Package - brand "Old Man Que Huong" as shown in the video (star anise, whole cloves, cinnamon sticks, cardamom, coriander seeds)
  • Seasonings: Salt, Black Peppercorn, Sugar, Fish Sauce, Seasoning (or Chicken Bouillon Powder)
  • Pho Toppings: Beef Brisket, Beef Tendon, Beef Raw Slices, Beef Balls,... whatever your heart desires

Instruction: (If anyone needs the full recipe with step-by-step instruction, I pinned the video to my profile. Please check it out!)

  1. Rinse bones well many times. Fully soak them in cold water & refrigerate overnight to remove blood and impurities from bones (Optional, but highly recommended. You'll be surprised with the result I show in the video. This tip I learned from Japanese ramen broth making)
  2. Parboil bones with salt. Once it's boiled, cook for 5 mins and take out. Rinse well under water until cleaned.
  3. Char onions & ginger until fragrant (or air fry 380F-190C for 8 mins for convenience like me)Arrange bones + charred onions + gingers in the pot. Add salt, peppercorn, and water to the max level. Pressure cook 45 mins -> Natural release 45 mins. You will get a beautiful and clear broth.
  4. Filter to get the broth. Discard onions & ginger (optional), utilize bones again + add beef brisket & beef tendon + add sugar & seasoning to make the meat savory => Pressure cook 15-20 mins -> Natural release 10 mins (Adjust cooking time depending on your meet's size, but don't overcook)
  5. Roast Pho spice until fragrant => Add to the spice ball/ tea bag/ cheesecloth
  6. Take out beef brisket and tendon. Add Pho spices to the pot => Saute - Low for 20-30 mins. Season again to your liking with salt, fish sauce, and sugar.
  7. Assembly: add Pho noodles, add toppings beef brisket/ tendon/ raw slices, and top with the boiling broth. Finish with chopped scallions, and onion slices.
  8. Enjoy when it's hot with basil, culantro, bean sprouts, siracha, and Hoisin sauce 😝

Hope you enjoy the recipe and give it a try 🥰
