Steps:
- Bring the stock to a very light simmer in a large pot, then add the beef base, fish sauce, hoisin, scallion halves, ginger, cloves, star anise, cinnamon stick and 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce. Simmer for 30 minutes.
- Using a spider or strainer, remove all the solids, leaving you with just the broth. Taste and adjust the seasoning with the additional tablespoon of soy sauce if it needs more salt, or hoisin if it needs more sweetness. Bring the broth back to a light simmer.
- Meanwhile, set up your bowls. On the bottom, divvy up the rice noodles, then top with the shaved beef. Pour in some simmering broth. Garnish with the bean sprouts, cilantro, mint, scallions sliced on the bias, jalapenos and lime wedges. Drizzle with extra hoisin if desired.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final dish. Choose fresh, high-quality beef and vegetables for the best flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the beef, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the beef from cooking evenly and will make it more difficult to get a good sear.
- Cook the beef in batches: If you have a lot of beef to cook, cook it in batches. This will help to prevent the pan from getting overcrowded and will ensure that the beef cooks evenly.
- Use a timer: When cooking the rice, be sure to use a timer so that you don't overcook it. Overcooked rice is mushy and unappetizing.
- Let the rice rest: After cooking the rice, let it rest for a few minutes before fluffing it. This will help the rice to absorb more moisture and will make it more tender.
- Serve the beef and rice immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The beef will be most tender and juicy, and the rice will be perfectly cooked.
Conclusion:
Beef and rice is a classic dish that is enjoyed by people all over the world. It is a simple dish to make, but it can be easily customized to suit your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and satisfying beef and rice dish that your family and friends will love.
