PREPARATION

• 2

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

• 3

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

• 4

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

• 5

  Thinly slice the raw eye of round beef against the grain into paper-thin pieces for quick cooking.

• 6

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

• 8

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