SHARE WITH YOUR LOVED ONES
social wellbeing
Caring for your wellbeing doesn’t have to be practised alone. In fact, sharing a nourishing meal with those that light you up can be a meaningful (and delicious) way to cultivate a sense of community and social wellbeing, which offers a range of important health benefits. This Beef Pho recipe from Jodie Blight takes around 40 minutes, but feel free to spend hours deep in conversation while you enjoy it.
beef pho
Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 30 | Serves: 4
ingredients:
- 400g beef fillet
- 1 brown onion, thickly sliced
- 2cm ginger, thick slices
- 3 star anise
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1/2 tbsp cardamom seeds
- 1 tbsp coriander seeds
- 1/2 tbsp black peppercorns
- 4 cloves
- 2 garlic cloves, peeled and bruised
- 2 ltrs beef stock
- 2 tbsp fish sauce
- 1/2 tbsp caster sugar
- 200 g rice noodles
toppings:
- 100g bean sprouts
- 1 bunch mint
- 1 bunch coriander
- 1 long red chilli, diced (optional)
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
method:
- Place the beef fillet in the freezer for 20 minutes. This will make it easier to slice thinly without freezing the beef solid.
In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, dry roast the onion and ginger until they char slightly. Add the star anise, cinnamon stick, cardamom seeds, coriander seeds, black peppercorns, and cloves. - When fragrant, add the bruised garlic cloves and toss around for another 30 seconds. Then add the beef stock, fish sauce, and sugar. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 15 - 20 minutes while you prepare the noodles and toppings.
- Remove the beef from the freezer and slice it as thinly as possible.
- Divide the noodles among 4 bowls and top with the thinly sliced beef.
- Remove the aromatics and solids from the broth using a skimming or straining spoon (or a sieve but be sure to catch the broth). Bring the broth back to a boil over high heat for a few minutes to ensure it is very hot.
- Ladle the boiling hot broth over the noodles and beef. The hot broth will gently cook the beef.
- Serve immediately, garnished with bean sprouts, mint, coriander, chilli (if using), and lime wedges.
