I love finding new ways to make Vietnamese beef pho noodle soup quicker and easier.
On days when I don’t want to dine out or spend hours in front of a hot stove, this recipe fits the bill.
Why You Will Love this Recipe
It’s tasty. It’s probably the quickest way to enjoy authentic Vietnamese beef noodle soup at home. This recipe replicates restaurant pho so well that it makes me wonder why I would do it any other way.
Perfect for beginners, those short on time and the lazies. This method delivers all the rich flavors and soul-soothing warmth of classic pho in a fraction of the time with the help of an 8-quart Instant Pot Pressure Cooker.
What is Phở?
Pho, pronounced “fuh“ in the tone of a question, is a widely popular Vietnamese beef noodle soup.
A bowl of beef pho consists of flat rice noodles in a flavorful and aromatic beef broth, topped with fresh green onions and other garnishes.
In Vietnam, pho is a popular breakfast option but it can be eaten any time of day.
Different parts of Vietnam offer different styles of pho. Northern regions offer a more savory broth with fewer toppings whereas Southern regions offer a sweeter broth, with a variety of herbs, vegetables, and meats.
The two most popular types of pho noodle soups are chicken pho and beef pho.
What You Will Need
To make this super easy beef pho recipe, gather the following:
Meaty Beef Bones: I’m using beef chuck short ribs from Costco, which come in large slabs. Bring them home and cut between the bones to separate the ribs. Not only do they form the base of the beef broth, but they also serve as the meaty topping.
Onion and Ginger: I’m using a whole large yellow onion and 3-inch piece of fresh ginger.
Quoc Viet Beef Pho Soup Base: This soup base eliminates the need for individual seasonings and spices. It’s a blend of mainly dried beef stock, salt, sugar, and fish sauce powder, all conveniently mixed together into a paste.
The container also comes with two spice bags. The spice bag, resembling a tea bag, contains ground pho spices: star anise, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, coriander, and fennel—a blend that gives pho’s distinctive aroma.
