Keto Beef Pho Recipe

Updated: Dec 11, 2019


Pho has always been one of my late night (and quite possibly drunk) favorites. Though many places offer it at all hours of the night, I have never found a keto compliant version. The rice noodles and sugars simply give it too many carbs. If you find yourself craving pho, this keto pho recipe will surely hit the spot.

Let's Do This:

For the broth:

  1. Over medium-high heat, toast black peppercorns, cinnamon stick, coriander, fennel seed, star anise, and cloves until fragrant and slightly brown, roughly 5 minutes.

  2. Add toasted seasonings to a spice bag, or make your own with a cheesecloth or a tea infuser for easy removal after the broth is cooked.

  3. Peel and halve the ginger.

  4. Cut onion into 2 large chunks.

  5. Add BROTH ingredients to your Instant Pot or slow cooker.

  6. Set your Instant Pot to high pressure and cook for 35 minutes. If using a slow cooker, cook on medium for about 8 hours.

  7. When you hear your timer, let sit for an additional 20 minutes. Follow directions to depressurize your Instant Pot.

  8. Once you can open your pot, remove the spice bag, beef, ginger, and onion. Save beef, discard everything else.

Serving:

  1. Slice the onion, jalapeno, and lime.

  2. Thinly slice remaining raw beef. Freezing for 15-20 minutes will help get thinner slices

  3. Cut cooked beef from the broth into small pieces.

  4. Add konjac noodles and raw beef to the bottom of a bowl (the beef will cook when you pour in your broth). Add cooked beef (from broth) and your desired toppings into your bowl. Ladle broth into your bowl. If broth has cooled, bring it to a boil before adding.

  5. Enjoy!
