Vietnamese Beef Pho

Since Princess Lottie  joined an online cooking challenge (bit like a book club), she’s been presented with numerous recipes and dishes to make each month. One such challenge was to produce the national Vietnamese treasure of Pho. Being of origin, her husband Wayne, naturally wanted to partake, and do it the long way. I, on the other hand wont do it, but I will eat it with. Anyone recommend the best pho in London? Otherwise read on to make your own.

Mama Hue’s Kitchen

This week it’s Princess Lottie’s uglier half giving you a taste of what it was like to grow up in Mama Hue’s kitchen.  Strong aromas (!), fresh ingredients, and flavours that packed a whole lot of punch: that was Mama’s trademark.  And the in-laws certainly approved on Saturday when we cooked up this Vietnamese inspired feast.  Credit also goes to Mr Ramsey’s Chinese five-spiced pork for leaving the in-laws thoroughly fed and ready to burst, but it was really Princess Lottie’s chocolate delight in a box that made us roll them out of here…
PS:  if you want to taste Mama’s home recipes, just give us a shout.  I’m sure she’ll be on the first plane over here!
