Pho for two
- Number of Servings: 2
Ingredients
3 c Beef broth1 tsp Whole anise seed (about 2)1 Cinnamon stick1 tsp Crushed ginger8 oz (1 pakage) Shirataki tofu noodles4 oz Beef Sirloin (trim fat)1.5 Tbsp Fish sauceDash fresh ground black pepper2 c Bean sprouts1 c Cabbage, shredded0.25 Scallions, chopped0.5 c Fresh basil0.5 c Fresh cilantro
In a saucepan bring broth, ginger, star anise, and cinnamon to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
Rinse and drain Shirataki noodles well. Pat dry. In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave noodles for 1 minute.
Drain excess liquid from noodles. Dry thoroughly, using paper towels to soak up as much moisture as possible. Cut noodles up a bit using a knife or kitchen shears (if desired). Set aside.
With a very sharp knife cut sirloin across the grain into very thin slices. (For easier slicing, freeze meat slightly first).
Strain broth into saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir in fish sauce and pepper. Add sirloin, sprouts, & cabbage and cook 30 to 45 seconds, or until sirloin changes color. Skim any froth from soup.
To serve, divide noodles into 2 bowls. Ladle soup over noodles. Sprinkle scallion greens, cilantro, and basil over soup and serve with lime wedges, hoisin & sriracha.
Makes 2 servings
I like to top with hoisin (about 35 cal per Tbsp) & sriracha (about 20 per Tbsp). You can use low sodium broth or lower the fish sauce content o lower sodium but I feel it changes the taste. Changing the beef for tofu will also lower the calories a bit.
