Yield Makes 2–4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 small onion
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 3x1" piece peeled ginger
2 1/2 cups low-salt beef broth
1 whole star anise
1 3"-4" cinnamon stick
4 ounces (2 cups) mixed mushrooms (such as oyster or stemmed shiitake), thinly sliced or torn
1 scallion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt
2 packages instant ramen (preferably not fried; noodles only)
1 1/4-1/2-pound piece beef eye round, sliced crosswise 1/8" thick
Bean sprouts, basil leaves, and thinly sliced serrano chiles

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add onion, cut side down, garlic, and ginger. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is golden, 3-4 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups water, broth, star anise, and cinnamon; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until flavors meld, 7-8 minutes. Add mushrooms; simmer 2 minutes. Add scallion. Season with salt.
  • Meanwhile, boil ramen until tender but still firm to bite. Drain; divide among bowls.
  • Add beef slices to soup; simmer until just cooked through, about 20 seconds. Using tongs, transfer beef to bowls.
  • Discard ginger, garlic, star anise, and cinnamon; ladle broth into bowls. Garnish with bean sprouts, basil, and sliced chiles.

I'm not vegan, but I'm always looking for new and exciting plant-based recipes. This faux pho definitely fits the bill! The broth is incredibly flavorful, and the shiitake mushrooms add a nice meaty texture. I'll definitely be making this again.
