Pho soup with rice noodles and chicken

Pho - the cult soup from Vietnam. Ph ở gà nhanh và ngon - pho soup with chicken fast and delicious

Phở is a famous Vietnamese rice noodle soup, and its name is known all over the world. This very diverse soup has become a cult dish, not only in Vietnam. It tastes great with both beef and chicken, and also in a vegetarian or vegan version.

In the original phở gà recipe, whole chicken is cooked to make a rich broth. For those who are in a hurry, I recommend preparing the broth in advance and, for example, freezing it. We can also prepare a large pot of broth and use it to prepare another soup for 2-3 days.

You can buy most of the products in every store, but I recommend looking for rice noodles or fish sauce in larger stores or ordering them online, e.g. at World cuisines < / a>

While the broth is boiling, pour lukewarm water in a bowl and soak for 20 minutes. Then boil water in a pot and add the drained pasta for 30 seconds. Drain, rinse with hot water, drain and divide into heated soup bowls.
