PREPARATION

• 1

  Char the onion and ginger over an open flame or in a dry pan until fragrant and slightly blackened.

• 2

  In a large pot, combine the beef bone broth, star anise, cinnamon, charred onion, and ginger; simmer for 20 minutes to develop the flavor.

• 3

  While the broth simmers, cook the rice noodles according to package directions, then drain and set aside.

• 4

  Thinly slice the flank steak against the grain into very thin, translucent strips.

• 5

  Strain the broth to remove the solids and return the liquid to the pot; season with fish sauce, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 6

  Place the cooked noodles in a large serving bowl and arrange the raw beef slices on top in a single layer.

• 7

  Pour the boiling hot broth directly over the beef slices to cook them instantly until they are just tender.

  Garnish the bowl with fresh bean sprouts, basil, cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime before serving.
