Divide noodles into serving bowls and ladle the beef stew soup over the noodles.
Recipe Summary Vietnamese Beef Pho
This soup is served with a plate full of fresh garnishes as well as various sauces. This allows each person to season their serving to taste. The soup is somewhat unusual, because the meat is cooked in the bowl. The beef is sliced very thin, almost thin enough to see through. You might want to have the butcher slice it for you. The boiling hot broth is poured over the noodles and raw meat. The meat is quickly cooked in the hot broth in the time it takes to garnish the soup.Ingredients | Beef Stew Rice Noodle Soup
