Instructions
Step 1
Here are the basics steps for how to make homemade vegan pho. The full instructions are detailed in the recipe box below, as always.
Step 2
Make the broth. Char the onion and ginger (either in a skillet or under the broiler). Meanwhile, briefly toast the spices in a large stockpot. Add in the onion, ginger, and broth. Then cover and let everything simmer together for at least 30 minutes so that all of those flavors can meld. Strain out and discard all of the onions, ginger and spices. Then stir in the remaining broth ingredients and mushrooms (see below) and season with salt.
Step 3
Cook the veggies. Meanwhile, as the broth is simmering, sauté the mushrooms in a separate pan until cooked through and lightly golden. Then once the onions, ginger and spices have been strained out of the broth, stir the mushrooms, baby bok choy and sliced carrots into the broth for the final 5 minutes before serving.
Step 4
Cook the noodles. Meanwhile, as the broth is simmering, cook the noodles al dente according to the package instructions. Drain in a strainer, then toss briefly with cold water to prevent the noodles from continuing to cook, and set aside. (I also recommend tossing the noodles with a drizzle of oil — such as sesame oil — to prevent them from sticking.)
Step 5
Assemble. Once everything is ready to go, add a handful of noodles to each individual serving bowl. Then ladle the simmering hot broth (with veggies) into the serving bowls. Top with lots and lots of garnishes.
Step 6
Serve. And serve warm, encouraging everyone to stir the garnishes into the soup so that they can flavor the broth.
