Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 2 tablespoons whole coriander seeds
- 1 cinnamon stick (roughly broken)
- 4 whole star anise
- 4 whole cloves
- 1 quart turkey or chicken
- 1 piece of ginger (3-inch size, roughly chopped)
- 1 bunch of scallions or green onions (reserve the green parts for garnishing the soup, white parts only)
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1-5 slices fresh jalapeno pepper (depending on your spice tolerance)
- 1 handful pho rice noodles (soaked or cooked according to package directions)
- several thin slices of leftover turkey or shredded leftover turkey meat
- 1 generous handful bean sprouts
- sliced scallions or green onions to taste (green parts only)
- several sprigs of fresh basil
- sprigs of fresh cilantro
- 1-3 lime wedges
- sriracha and/or hoisin sauce to taste
Instruction
- Place a heavy-bottomed soup pot over medium low heat. Add all of the spices and stir them until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. Carefully add the stock or broth; it will sputter quite a bit. Turn the heat to high and add the remaining broth ingredients. When it reaches a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered for 20-30 minutes. Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve into another saucepot or soup pot. Keep it at a simmer while you assemble your bowls and garnishes.
