Introduction

Pho is a Vietnamese soup, usually made with boiling beef or chicken broth that is poured over various meats and vegetables. This is a non-authentic vegetarian broth that I use instead of beef. It is spicy, and very flavorful with virtually no calories. Pour over raw veggies, add some fresh basil, cilantro, beansprouts and some tofu for a delicious vegetarian meal.

Ingredients

    2 cups water
    1 clove of garlic, sliced
    1 inch of ginger, sliced
    1.5 tsp Soy sauce (0.5 Tbsp)
    1 Tbsp rice vinegar (unseasoned)
    0.5 tsp Sambal Olek (hot pepper paste)
    .25 of a lime

Directions

Combine all ingredients except lime and set to boil for 10 minutes, covered. I chop my veggies and prep the tofu while it's boiling. Then remove garlic and ginger slices and pour over chopped veggies and tofu, squeeze lime juice into soup, wait 5 minutes and enjoy!

Pho usually also has vermicelli noodles at the bottom - I omit these and use extra veggies instead.
