Calling all pho fans. Our vegetarian version is light with layers of complex flavor from charred carrots and spring onions. We're going to go ahead and warn you that cooking this dish will result in your entire house smelling amazing. Cloves, fennel seed, anise, fresh Thai basil, ginger and garlic give this dish that familiar "pho" smell and flavor, but in an entirely fresh and unconventional way. Mung bean sprouts add crisp texture against the tender rice noodles and smooth, flavorful broth.
