Spicy Vegetarian Pho

If you’re looking for a hearty yet healthy soup to warm you up this winter, look no further than pho! This Vietnamese soup is traditionally made with beef or chicken but can easily be made vegetarian by substituting tofu or mushrooms. For a little extra spice, we like to add a few dashes of sriracha hot sauce to our bowl.

 Ingredients:

• 1 cup vegetable broth
• 1 onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon grated ginger
• 1 carrot, thinly sliced
• 1 red pepper, thinly sliced
• 1/4 head of cabbage, thinly sliced
• 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
• 1 cup bean sprouts
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 4-6 cups water
• 2 bay leaves

 3-star anise pods (or 1 teaspoon aniseed) salt and black pepper to taste optional: 1-2 tablespoons sriracha or other chili sauce for serving optional garnishes: green onions, cilantro, lime wedges.

Method:

In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the broth, onion, garlic, ginger, carrot, red pepper, cabbage mushrooms, and bean sprouts. Pour in the soy sauce, brown sugar, and rice vinegar, then add 4 cups water. Add the bay leaves, star anise, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.

If desired, remove the bay leaves’ star anise before serving. Ladle into bowls and enjoy with your favorite chili sauce and fresh garnishes.
