Ingredients
- 6 cups vegetable stock no sodium
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 2-inch piece of ginger peeled and sliced
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 3 star anise
- 3 whole cloves
- 0.5 oz dried shiitake mushrooms 1 package
- 8 oz wide rice noodles cooked, drained and rinsed under cold water
- 2 baby bok choy sliced in half, lengthwise
- 4 oz firm tofu cut into cubes
- 2 tablespoon tamari or soy sauce
- 1 cup mung bean sprouts
- 1 bunch scallions green and white parts, sliced
- basil or cilantro
- Lime wedges
- sriracha, sambal, or other hot sauce
Instructions
- In a large pot, combine vegetable stock, garlic, ginger, cinnamon stick, star anise, and cloves.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 15 minutes.
- While broth is simmering, rinse dried mushrooms, then soak them in two cups warm water for 15 minutes or until tender. You can also use this time to cook the rice noodles if not already done.
- Add the bok choy to the simmering broth for 5 minutes
- Into 4 soup bowls, divide the cooked rice noodles and top with tofu cubes
- Remove bok choy from the broth and divide among the bowls
- Strain the mushroom soaking water and add to the broth, along with the mushrooms, bringing back to the boil.
- Stir soy sauce into the broth, turn off the heat, and using a ladle, top the soup bowls with the broth & mushrooms
- Top off each bowl with scallions, and bean sprouts
- serve with basil or cilantro, hot sauce, and lime wedges.
Notes
- I used dried mushrooms because the flavourful soaking water is a delicious addition to the pho broth. If you prefer to use fresh, use 6 ozs of fresh mushrooms and add them into the broth with the bok choy, along with two additional cups of vegetable stock.
- Use tamari, or gluten-free soy sauce, to make this recipe gluten-free.
- Star Anise can sometimes be hard to find. If you can't find it, use 2 teaspoon of Chinese Five Spice powder instead.
