Default Beef Pho

Beef Pho

... submitted by dave
from PA, US

Authentic South Vietnamese Style Pho. A comforting richly seasoned beef
broth is ladled over rice noodles and thinly sliced beef. Add hot sauce
and plum sauce to taste and top with cilantro, basil, lime juice and bean
sprouts.

5 pounds beef knuckle, with meat
2 pounds beef oxtail
1 white (daikon) radish, sliced
2 onions, chopped
2 ounces whole star anise pods
1/2 cinnamon stick
2 whole cloves
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 slice fresh ginger root
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 1/2 pounds dried flat rice noodles
1/2 pound frozen beef sirloin

TOPPINGS:
sriracha hot pepper sauce
hoisin sauce
thinly sliced onion
chopped fresh cilantro
bean sprouts (mung beans)
sweet Thai basil
thinly sliced green onion
limes, quartered

Place the beef knuckle in a very large (9 quart or more) pot. Season with
salt, and fill pot with 2 gallons of water. Bring to a boil, and cook for
about 2 hours. Skim fat from the surface of the soup, and add the oxtail,
radish and onions. Tie the anise pods, cinnamon stick, cloves,
peppercorns and ginger in a cheesecloth or place in a spice bag; add to
the soup. Stir in sugar, salt and fish sauce. Simmer over medium-low heat
for at least 4 more hours (the longer, the better). At the end of cooking,
taste, and add salt as needed. Strain broth, and return to the pot to keep
at a simmer. Discard spices and bones. Reserve meat from the beef knuckle
for other uses if desired. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a
boil. Soak the rice noodles in water for about 20 minutes, then cook in
boiling water until soft, but not mushy, about 5 minutes. Slice the frozen
beef paper thin. The meat must be thin enough to cook instantly. Place
some noodles into each bowl, and top with a few raw beef slices. Ladle
boiling broth over the beef and noodles in the bowl. Serve with hoisin
sauce and Sriracha sauce on the side. Set onion, cilantro, bean sprouts,
basil, green onions, and lime out at the table for individuals to add
toppings to their liking.
