Quick Beef Pho Recipe | Jet Tila | Food Network image

I wrote this recipe for fast pho because you don't always want to take a whole day to source the ingredients for and make pho from scratch. This is an awesome hack to be eating pho in an hour! You can find all the ingredients locally and even have them delivered. Slicing beef paper thin can be a pain. Japanese and Chinese markets always stock paper-thin meats for shabu shabu or sukiyaki.

Total Time 1 hours 0 minutes

Cook Time 20 minutes

Yield Makes 2 large or 4 small bowls

Number Of Ingredients 20

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 
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 

Steps:

  • 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.
