I have been willing to make pho just with beef broth and its usual accompaniments. But the we saw Jet Tila make a quick pho broth on his show, Ready, Jet, Cook and decided to give it a try. Here’s his recipe.

We took a few shortcuts like using deli roast beef torn into bite size pieces. I also made the rice noodles separately in cases we had leftovers. I have had rice noodles disintegrate overnight in the broth. LOL, as if we would have leftovers.

Our accompaniments along with the noodles and roast beef were basil, cilantro, green onions, bean sprouts, and jalapeños. It turned out very tasty and we ate the whole pot of soup.
