    Bring to a boil and then simmer for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  3. Strain solids from the broth through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth. Taste and adjust seasoning with fish sauce if required. Keep stock hot until ready to serve.
  4. Prepare all the soup garnishes: Thinly slice the beef (as for carpaccio). Wash and drain all other garnishes. Arrange everything neatly on a side plate to serve alongside the noodle bowl

    Assemble the bowl: Place a portion of noodles at the bottom of each serving bowl. Top with raw beef slices

    Add broth: Pour the hot, simmering stock directly over the beef and noodles. The heat from the broth will cook the beef.

Tips

  • Slice the meat while still slightly frozen – this allows for very thin slices.
  • Suggested substitution for Filet of Beef: flank, brisket, eye round, chuck
