Treat your ingredients with care...
- Beef — For the best results, choose a tender cut of beef like sirloin or tenderloin and slice it thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness.
- Lemongrass — Remove the tough outer layers of the lemongrass stalk before mincing. Use only the tender inner part for the marinade.
- Rice noodles — Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions, then rinse them under cold water to prevent sticking.
Tips & Tricks
- To enhance the flavor of the broth, you can add additional spices such as cloves, cardamom, or fennel seeds.
- Customize the dipping sauce by adjusting the amount of vinegar, sugar, and chili according to your preference.
- Experiment with different vegetables and herbs to create your own unique combination of flavors.
- If you prefer a spicier broth, add sliced chili peppers or chili flakes to the simmering broth.
- Don't overcook the beef slices in the hot pot to maintain their tenderness.
