Vietnamese Beef Noodle

The first time I tried this Vietnamese Beef Noodle was at Ngee Ann City, Singapore two and half years ago. A group of Korean ladies was queuing up to take their order from the Vietnamese Beef Noodle Stall located at Takashimaya Food Court... So I joined in the queue and gave it a try. This Vietnamese Beef Noodle is called Pho Bo and it is very delicious... It was a disappointment while we could not find this stall when we revisited Ngee Ann City last year.

Since then, it is always in our mind that we are to try to cook this noodle ourselves base on the memory that we have in our mind. And it was not until our last Care Group Meeting that we decided to cook this Vietnamese Noodle, after Google search for its recipe...

Our version of Vietnamese beef Noodle

The recipe called for beef bones and beef chuck for the broth. We burned these onions and gingers before we boiled them with the beef bones and beef chuck for two hours.

Sirloin beef cut into thin slice


The garnishes are: Bean Sprout, Parsley , Chili Padi (small hot chili), Sweet Basil, Black Pepper, Sirloin Beef and Beef Ball as extra bonus...


We could not find Thai Basil, so we used Sweet Basil instead...

Though the taste was not quite the same but it was delicious. I could not help myself but to take another snap on my bowl of Vietnamese Beef Noodle, and I have fell in love with the aroma of the sweet basil.
