How to make it

Boil the beef bones and brisket in a large stock pot with hot water for at least 5 minutes, then lower to medium and simmer for 10 minutes. Discard all of the water and set the bones aside.

Without burning, toast shallots, onion, star anise, cinnamon, and cardamom in a dry pan until the aromas come through. Transfer to spice bags or wrap in cheesecloth.

Add your beef bones, brisket, and spice bags to a pressure cooker and fill to at least 3L (4 if more broth is desired) with water. Close the lid, seal, and cook at high pressure for 40 minutes (“Soup” setting).
-
Release natural pressure from the pressure cooker carefully, and remove and discard spice bags, beef bones. Transfer brisket to cutting board and slice into thin pieces. Season pho broth with salt and fish sauce to taste.

Cook the rice noodles separately according to package instructions and add to serving bowls with bean sprouts, thinly sliced red onion, and brisket slices.
