    Recipe
    Ingredients
    - 3KG beef bones
    - 450g chuck roast
    - 2 tbsp grapeseed oil (or peanut/canola oil)
    - 6L cold water
    - 2 brown onions
    - 1 large piece of ginger
    - 5 cloves
    - 5 star anise
    - 3 black cardamom pods
    - 20g coriander seeds
    - 1 cinnamon stick
    - 5g sea salt
    - 100ml fish sauce
    - 30g rock sugar
    - Rice noodles
    - 300g ribeye or sirloin steak
    - Bird's eye chillies
    - White onion
    - Thai basil
    - Coriander
    - 2 limes for the broth and 2 limes for serving
    - 1 packet of bean sprouts
    -
    Method
    1. Place all the bones into a pre-heated oven at 200c for 40-50 minutes or until they have a dark colour.
    2. In the meantime, char the onions and ginger over an open flame (if you don’t have gas this can be done under the grill setting of the oven).
    3. Toast the spices in a dry fry pan and set aside with the charred veg.
    4. Take your chuck roast and season with salt all over. In the same pan as you toasted the spices, heat over high heat and with a small amount of oil. Seal the roast on all sides until it has good colour, set this aside also.
    5. Once your bones are ready, remove from the oven and place them into a large pot, followed by the cold water. Let this sit for 5 minutes and skim the top of any impurities.
    6. Place the pot over the heat and bring to a simmer, once simmering add the onions, ginger, spices, fish sauce, salt, rock sugar and roast chuck.
    7. Simmer this on low heat for 2.5 hours then remove your roast and set aside to rest. Keep cooking the soup for another 2-4 hours depending on how much time you have.
    8. While the soup is cooking, it's a great time to get all the garnishes ready:
    1. Pick the coriander and Thai basil
    2. Slice some lime wedges
    3. Slice the chillies
    4. Soak the rice noodles in cold water
    5. Slice the cooked chuck roast thin
    6. Slice the ribeye very thin (pro tip, freeze it for an hour before you slice to help you slice it nice and thin)
    9. Just before you are about to serve, check the seasoning of the broth to see if it needs salt. Add some fish sauce and pour in the juice of 2 limes.
    10. In a pot of boiling water, blanch the noodles for 1 minute and place them into your serving bowl.
    11. On top of that, place 3 - 4 pieces of each meat (the cooked chuck and the raw rib) and a small handful of bean shoots.
    12. Pour over the hot pho broth.
    13. Garnish with the herbs, a lime wedge and fresh chillies
    Enjoy!

    As a Canadian white boy who lives in the snow and ice for almost 8 months of the year, phở has become one of our favourite foods. We've got several great Vietnamese restaurants that serve up these huge basins of soup. My wife says I have a genetic disorder because I love hot chilies so much. I always order a side dish of the birds eye chilies which go so well with the CILANTRO! Time to go out for supper!

      Eh. I don’t know. I feel it’s perfectly valid to adjust recipes to your taste or the taste of your audience or to make them more accessible, be it ingredient-wise or method-wise or just make them seem less foreign so people are encouraged to try. It’s also perfectly valid to enjoy the altered version more or to simply not care that much. I’m actually really turned off by all the people flooding comment sections just to complain and nit pick and be generally really rude.

    I saw this video recommended on my youtube. When I came here to see, I was very pleased to see how you prepared the ingredients. It's true, but for Vietnamese pho, we don't add fish sauce to the broth. We only use salt and rock sugar. Because when simmering bone broth for 8 hours, the broth will gradually run out. So using fish sauce will make the broth sour, especially if you have seasoned the broth with cinnamon and star anise before.
    It is a strange thing that everyone thinks that Vietnamese people often add fish sauce to soup. But really, we just use it as a dipping sauce. The sweetness and flavor of the broth usually come from beef bones, chicken bones, or vegetables. Therefore, do not try to add fish sauce to the broth, because it will destroy everything.
    Finally, I inherited a southern-flavored pho restaurant from my family. I prepare and cook pho every day!

    Great video.

It guarantees clear, funk-free broth and is less labor-intensive than skimming. I do it with my chicken broth also.

    I make pho myself at home too. Since you go out of your way and make everything very traditional way, the only thing I would add is that you want to boil the bone by itself first, wash it over with cold water then you can start the process of making the broth since it will clean all the scum out which allow the broth to be much clearer. Beside of that, you did awesome.

    I use the same exact ingredients for my pho. Same brand and everything, so yes I'd say it's authentic!! Also my pho I cook for about 12 hours, I've noticed that the longer you let it go the more collagen and fat you can extract from the bones/tendons makes a HUGE difference. Thicker fuller broth also a lot beefier, just make sure you take out majority of the spices about 6 hours in so they don't turn to mush and sour your soup. Ofcourse it's only once in a while that I make it, but if you're already going to slave over prep and making the broth then might as well go for maximum effort!

    I recommend soaking the onion garnish in cold/ice water for a couple minutes before plating. It removes the strong bite and mellows out the flavor. Blanching the bean sprouts is nice too, removes the raw, bitter flavor. You could also use a drawstring bag for the spices to keep it together.
    Best way to eat it to to mix lime, hoisin and sriracha on the side for dipping meats. Enjoying the broth without any sauce add-ins makes it very worthwhile. Really enjoyed this video!

      also, i know that some people get their bean sprouts blanched but i love that crispiness when they're fresh and i don't notice an unpleasant raw and bitter flavour at all.

Washing the bones after roasting helps alot with clarity and cuts down on skinming even more. The sugar and fish sauce are to balance. If you add the fish sauce that early it gets lost. You should laddle the broth from the bottom, middle and top to get fat, collagen and the heart of the broth.

    This man knows the broth is the star of the show.

    Usually I will boil the bones for 5 minutes and discard the liquid. Then, clean the bones under cold tap water thoroughly before simmering them for hours. This will help to get crystal clear broth. I have not yet try the egg raft method but I think it should help too. If the onion & ginger are too brown, you may scrape some if it off otherwise it will leave a dark tint to the broth. If you have some leftover roots from the coriander, don't throw it away! Add it during the simmer. It will add some flavor to the already yummy broth. Definitely not a Vietnamese here but I love that dish too. Totally worth the effort. Cheers!

    Good video. The 2nd option of roasting the onion and ginger in the oven is the better option so there isn't the acrid taste if it gets burnt on the gas hob. Doing the same with the spices is probably best as toasting them in the pan has less margin for error. Sling the spices in a tied up muslin or cheese cloth is also a good idea.

    Kudos on you for taking the time to make pho from scratch. The ingredients you showed at the beginning already tells me you did some research. Growing up, my dad would cook pho on low flame overnight so we can eat it the next day. Oft times he'd add a whole chicken to the last two hours or so of cooking. Oxtail is often used back then, but it's too expensive now, so Vietnamese folks scramble to use other cheaper bones and meats. If your ginger and onion is too charred, you can scrape the burnt bits off with a small knife and rinse, this helps the broth stay clearer. As others mentioned, a quick boiling and rinsing of the bones may also help with broth clarity, if you care for that. Spices can be added the last 2 hours or so of cooking (some say the spices dissipate if cooked too long whilst others say things like star anise can be overpowering if cooked too long). Fish sauce, many say don't add it or add it at the very end of cooking as some say it would go sour if cooked for too long. Others say to just add it at the table when served. And oh, grow your own Thai basil. Just strip most of the leaves off the stem, leaving maybe 4 small leaves at the top, and put it in water. It should root in a week or so and then you can plant it in a pot if you don't have land.

Just like you, pho is on my top 5, maybe even top 3 favourite food of all time - and I really have to thank you for this amazing video and recipe. After 7.5 hours of cooking I was able to taste my own pho. And it was sooooo great. Everyone in my family felt the same. Due to the fact that i like chicken pho, i added some little pieces of chicken for 15 minutes to let it cook.
    Thx. Awesome. Keep up the great work.

    Pretty much how I do mine, except I season with fish sauce and rock sugar at the end after straining. I also use those little white bags for the toasted spices :)
    That said, Ive been making beef Pho for 20 years, but really the best version of Pho is made with chicken broth in my opinion. Its not only shorter cook time, but so much more delicate yet 'peaky' as opposed to the hard hitting traditional super cinamonny cardamommy clovey beef pho broth, again in my opinion.

    Pro tip: Don't put your spices in until the last 1.5/2 hours of cooking your broth so the flavors remain strong and noticeable. The longer the spices cook in the broth, the more the flavors dissipate.
    Pro tip 2: Pickle the onions in a vinegar/sugar-based pickling juice for a refreshing side dish to eat with the pho.

I am a Vietnamese born Australian and " PHỞ" is my favorite dish always, I cook this dish all the time.. from my own experience, I find that seasoning the soup with fish sauce too early will not only create a slight sour after taste but fish sauce itself is too strong that it will overpower all of the aromatics. I usually only add fish sauce before serving. I would also double up the ginger. please try this and let me know your thoughts.. cheers
