Quick Beef Pho
RECIPE COURTESY OF JET TILA
Level: Easy
Total: 1 hr
Active: 20 min
Yield: Makes 2 large or 4 small bowls
Ingredients
Pho Stock:
2 tablespoons (30 g) beef bouillon or base
1 tablespoon (15 g) Vietnamese fish sauce
1 tablespoon (15 g) white sugar
One (2″ [5-cm]) piece ginger, sliced into thin tiles
1/2 yellow onion, large dice
Pinch kosher salt
2 whole cloves
2 whole star anise
1 cinnamon stick
Assembly:
1/2 pound (240 g) thin rice stick noodles, rinsed
1/2 pound (240 g) beef strip loin or fillet, shaved thin
1 cup (240 g) Vietnamese basil leaves
1 cup (240 g) bean sprouts
1/2 cup (95 g) cilantro leaves
5 jalapeno or serrano chiles, sliced thin
4 scallions, sliced thin on the bias
1/2 yellow onion, sliced paper thin
1 lime, cut into wedges
Hoisin sauce, for the table
Chili sauce, such as Sriracha, for the table
Directions
Special equipment: cheesecloth and butcher’s twine for the satchel
For the Pho Stock: Add the beef base and 1 quart water to a 2-quart (1.9-L) saucepan and bring to a low boil. Add the fish sauce, sugar, ginger, onion and salt to the stock and reduce the heat to a simmer. Wrap the cloves, star anise and cinnamon stick in a piece of cheesecloth and tie it into a satchel. Add the satchel to the broth and simmer for at least 30 minutes, but no more than 45 minutes.
Around the 30 minute mark, taste the broth to see that the spice flavors have been extracted, and adjust seasonings if necessary. Strain the aromatics and satchel from the broth, return to a sauce pot, and reserve for assembly.
For the assembly: Bring the broth back to a simmer. In a separate pot, bring water to a boil. Using a sieve or basket, quickly dip the noodles into the water until they are hot and al dente, 10 to 20 seconds. Drain the excess water from the noodles and distribute the noodles between 4 bowls.
Top each bowl with some sliced beef, basil, bean sprouts, cilantro, jalapeno, scallions and onion, or as each person wishes. Ladle in enough broth to cover the ingredients in the bowl. Garnish with a lime wedge. I like to serve pho with Sriracha and hoisin sauce.

THIS RECIPE IS THE BEST! I made this tonight and it's now a staple in my home. My Filipino boyfriend couldn't have been more happier, that his lil white girl-girlfriend made something very traditional tasting
I can eat pho everyday. It’s so delicious.
The Pho' spices are really close to "Chinese Five Spice"!!! I will use 5 spice when I make Pho'…
Do you buy pho? No because I can make my own hahaha!! I feel so proud of myself, is my first Vietnamese dish and all thanks to you! My husband loved it and I really enjoy it
I tried this brand called Mama La's Beef Pho. I was very very impressed…got it from the Asian market
Also got her veggie spring rolls also impressed with that too.
WoW I love pho Vietnamese receipe too.. I would like to do it today , I’m watching from Malaysia 🇲🇾 🤤🤤🤤🤤 I’m starving lol
Thank you for providing a quick, delicious pho recipe
คิดถึงตลาดบางกอกมากเลยครับ
Mmm my Mama is making some in the kitchen right now😊
Could I use beef stock rather than the beef base as I don’t think we have that in the uk? Thanks
Made this recipe for lunch today. First time ever making Pho. It was awesome and so easy! It's now a regular meal rotation for me. Thanks for putting this recipe out. It's fantastic.
So… I watched a white guy making "authentic traditional Pho with mint" for 3-4 hours by cooking beef bones and so on so on so on.
And I have watched a probably vietnamese, asian guy make quick and easy Pho using a premade beef stock and so on…
I'd rather do easy and quick and follow this guy because I think people who grew up with the culture know better than spend 3-4 hours in the kitchen for Pho xD
thank you for this recipe Food Network.
I have the soup all 4 seasons. It's like an addiction. And I only put in noodles, basil, onions and lime OR in a cup and sip it.👍🏼
Made this recipe with a few tweaks, and came out AMAZING. Definitely going to keep this recipe! Thank you for this!
At last! Pho at home. Thank you
The raw meat it's a no no for me but I know to each their own.
Hold up, I'm taking a minute and I'm subscribing. Appreciate you bro
i mean if ur lookibg for the quick version, just get that instant noodle pho which is usually 40cents😂 taste no different from the resturant or even better, trust me they put same amount of msg.
Recipe calls for 1 tablespoon of sugar… he put a full cup on camera thooo……
Pho is the world's best hangover food,tried and tested
Creat tv has alot of real, good cooking shows. Much better than the food network.
I tried this and woooooow I was proud of myself
It was sooo so good. Cant even believe it.
Brō you put onions & ginger but said onions & garlic 🤔 correct me if I’m tripping!
