VIETNAMESE CHICKEN PHO SOUP (PHO GA)
Recipe video above. Chicken Pho (Pho Ga) - the little sister of famous Beef Pho, equally delicious but much easier to make! I call it the Vietnamese version of homemade chicken noodle soup made from scratch. Except - dare I say it - so much more exciting!You won't use all the chicken, but it's infused with lovely flavour so there's loads of uses - see Note 7.

Steps:
- Char onion & ginger - Heat oil in a 6 litre / 6 quart pot (Note 5) over high heat. Place ginger and onion facedown, leave undisturbed for 2 minutes until they blacken. Turn and leave for another 2 minutes.
- Put everything in pot - Add water and remaining Broth ingredients EXCEPT salt. Bring it a simmer, then lower heat so it's simmering VERY gently with the lid on, but open a crack (Note 6).
- Simmer gently 1.5 hours. Scoop off scum (dirty foam) that rises to surface once or twice during the simmering.
- Strain & measure - Remove chicken, then strain broth into a clean pot - you should have 1.5 litres / 1.5 quarts. If you have more, simmer to reduce. If less, top it up with water.
- Salt broth - Add salt, bring broth to a gentle simmer. Broth should be slightly on the salty side - it dilutes when you add the noodles.
- Keep broth warm until ready to serve
- Shred chicken meat, discard bones and skin. (Note 6 Leftover Chicken ideas)
- Place Toppings out on the table.
- Reheat chicken (can briefly dunk in broth!).
- Prepare noodles per packet directions, just prior to serving. Drain very well (excess water dilutes broth).
- Place noodle in bowls. Top with chicken, ladle over 375ml / 1.5 cups broth. Sprinkle with green onion.
- Pile on Toppings of choice, add a squeeze of lime into the broth. Consume immediately!

FAUX CHICKEN AND SHRIMP PHO
This is my quick version of chicken pho, which is a fragrant, hearty Vietnamese inspired soup that can be eaten any time of the year. The broth is made fragrant with spices, ginger, garlic and veggies, which you can choose to keep, or toss. The spices/ginger/garlic can be contained in cheesecloth, or a tea infuser. This can be made low carb by omitting the noodles.
