Recipe Notes:

  • Be sure to use a good quality beef broth or broth that is low in sodium, as it will still add quite a few flavors and seasonings. If you can make homemade broth for this recipe, even better!
  • While this beef pho is a meal on its own and you don’t really need to add any side dishes, why not stick with the theme and enjoy it alongside some Vietnamese iced coffee?
  • You want to make sure that the meat slices are thin for this soup. To do this, you must use a sharp knife to cut the meat. Another helpful tip for getting thin slices of meat is to place the meat in the freezer for about 15 minutes; this will help you a lot to be able to cut thin slices.

What is Beef Pho?

“Pho” is a traditional Vietnamese soup that includes broth, rice noodles, herbs, and meat (in this case, beef). The best known are chicken pho and beef pho (also known as Vietnamese beef noodle soup).

“Pho” is pronounced “fuh” like “duh” and ranks high in terms of comfort food.

What other cut of beef can I use for instant beef pho?

While this recipe calls for sirloin steak, you can also use round steak or flank steak. All of these options will provide you with tender pieces of meat that offer hearty beef flavor.
