This was such a simple dish and great tasting. We found an Asian market and brought home a bunch of the chinese broccoli and added to the receipe, just lightly blanched. Even used the fish sauce which took a lot of faith! My son remarked that it was the most interesting dish he had ever had, and even ate the broccoli!
very easy and delicious

this recipe is extremely similar to the one my mother used to make (she was from south vietnam). when i stopped eating beef, she replaced the stock and the sirloin with chicken (the chicken version of this is called PHO GA). also recommended is hoison sauce (can be found in just about any supermarket) to finish.
Delish!

If I had realized how easy Pho is to make I would have done it long ago. I followed recipe exactly except I used jalepenos instead of thai chili & served w/hoisin sauce along with the other garnishes - extra tasty. Will make this again & again.
excellent and easy

i used a different meat than sirloin, which might require that you cook it longer and also eliminates the need for beef broth. delicious!

This recipe was easy and delicious. I was able to find all the ingredients at my local grocery store. I used round "rice stick" noodles instead of the flat ones and it tasted great. The soup tasted almost identical to the authentic pho I order at Vietnamese Restaurants. My husband loved it. I will definetely make this recipe again. In the end, I was impressed with myself for creating something so authentic tasting in my own kitchen. Asian cooking is always a bit intimidating for me but this recipe showed me that its not very difficult.
Loved this!!

This was an easy recipe and delish! Could not find the Star anise, but it was still very tasty! This is also a very versitile dish. Adding mushrooms and bamboo slices. I also recommend adding some minced garlic to the broth along with the ginger and cinnamon.
Tastes Great

This was a great soup recipe and cooks up quick. Recommend spending extra on QUALITY noodles and use more beef!
Nice

I made the mistake of using thin rice noodles... needed a heartier noodle to match the slices of beef. The only overall downside is the sodium - check out the label on the fish sauce... but it tastes good!

Pho Bo (Hanoi Beef Noodle Soup)
pho'ing fantastic

This dish tastes fantastic. The garnish (greens) you add at the end is spicier than I've had at most Vietnamese restaurants, but this is still well worth it. I can't get star anise at any of my normal grocery stores, so I use 1 tsp of anise seed in place of each star anise. I put the anise seed, cinnamon and ginger in cloth and tie it up so it is easy to remove later. Ever since I first made this, my husband cannot stop raving over it.
Sensible and Tasty

I made a few edits to this adding things I've always seen put into Pho broth. I added cinnamon and cloves. I also used whole pepper corns instead of ground pepper. I also added some very thinly sliced white onion to the bowls right before serving.
Very Good!

My husband goes to a local pho restaurant at least twice a week with his coworkers and is hooked on pho. He took me there a few weeks ago and I could see why. On a mission to make him pho at home, I tried this recipe and was very pleased at the outcome. He was also delighted with the surprise and the flavor. I will be making this regularly. I did change just a couple things--we don't like things too spicy, so I left out the Asian chile and we used an Asian chile sauce to our own taste in our own bowl along with the plum sauce and other fixings. Instead of cilantro I found a vegetable called Ngo Gai in the Asian market, which was much more similar (or the same thing) as what they serve in the restaurant he goes to. Also, I must admit I omitted the fish sauce, as the sauce I bought tasted terrible. All in all very tasty.
Easy on the fish sauce

Pretty easy and yummy recipe, but I'd recommend starting out lighter on the fish sauce. I used half as much as the recipe recommended, and it still was a little overwhelming because of the otherwise delicate seasoning. I would make it again, though.
Nothing Like Pho

This is not worth it. It tastes nothing like real pho. I would not make it again. With all the positive reviews and I happened to have all the ingredients on hand I thought great, I can make it at home but sadly it was just not good.I'd rather buy it.
One Fabulous Soup!

Really enjoyed this soup - when I made it again, I doubled the sirloin and noodles for a heartier dish. Wonderful!
