INGREDIENTS

5 oz Flank steak

2 oz Rice noodles

2 cup Beef bone broth

1 tbsp Fish sauce

1 piece Star anise

1 stick Cinnamon

1 inch Ginger

0.5 medium Yellow onion

0.5 cup Bean sprouts

0.25 cup Fresh basil

0.25 cup Fresh cilantro

0.5 whole Lime

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the halved onion and sliced ginger in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, charring until fragrant and slightly blackened on the edges.

• 2

  In a large pot, combine the beef bone broth, star anise, cinnamon stick, charred onion, ginger, and fish sauce.

• 3

  Bring the broth to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes to allow the spices to infuse the liquid.

• 4

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

• 5

  Strain the finished broth through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the solids and return the clear liquid to the pot.

• 6

  Season the broth with sea salt and black pepper, keeping it at a rolling boil.

• 7

  Divide the cooked noodles into a large bowl and arrange the raw, paper-thin slices of flank steak over the top.

• 8

  Pour the boiling broth directly over the beef to cook it instantly, then garnish with bean sprouts, basil, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime.
