By Deborah Kennedy


Sometimes it is hard for those people that are following a strict diet to enjoy their food. They only have limited choices when it comes to the dishes they could eat because basically almost all foods out there are unhealthy. Sometimes, they would also crave for other dish but are unable to eat it because they think that consuming foods that are not so healthy may cause something bad for their health. But, when vegetarian pho recipes are introduced all over the internet, it has never been the same.

Pho is a dish that was originated in Vietnam. This is a noodle recipe that is basically made up of entirely vegetables, there are no single meat that is added on it. This is a great thing and a must try for all the vegetarians out there. There is no thing as being afraid of unhealthy foods when creating this at home.

This dish may take some time to be cooked but once all are settled, it is pretty much worth it to dig in. When deciding to try cooking this recipe at home, all the ingredients should be prepared first and foremost. Vegetable stock, ground ginger, cinnamon sticks, onion, garlic, anise and soy sauce are just some of its ingredient. In making the soup, these are the ingredients, rice noodle that are thin, scallions, lime, mushrooms, basil leaves and pepper.

Notice that all the ingredients are pretty harmless for the diet. There is nothing that may seem so unhealthy all over the list. To continue the process, slice all the things that needs to be sliced and wash it thoroughly.

Once done, proceed with the creation of the broth. To do that, put the vegetable stocks, onion, soy sauce, ginger, anise, bay leaves and cinnamon into a large pot. Add enough amount of water in it and boil it down. Once the soup has boiled on a maximum point, reduce its heat and then cover it. Let it simmer for more or less forty minutes. This would create the flavors on boiling broth.

After forty five minutes, remove all those solids though a slotted spoon and try to keep the broth as hot as possible. Set that aside and focus on the noodles. Place the noodles on a large bowl then cover it with boiling water for ten minutes. Drain and rinse, divide the noodle depending on the serving that is desired.

Now, cook the rest of the ingredients. The tofu should be fried until all sides turn golden brown before adding it on the broth along with the mushrooms. Simmer it again for five minutes then put on top the scallions.

Now, add the soup on the served noodles. Garnish as the finishing touch would be done by serving the noodle with the wedged lime, bean sprouts and pepper. Never forget to add the basil on the side of bowl.

The nutrition facts of this dish is quite interesting, it has over four hundred calories and without cholesterol. Its protein is sixteen grams and has a carbs of seventy seven grams. Pretty much acceptable for the health conscious.
