[@WoonHeng]

thanks so much!

[@yasasvyguntur4109]

love this more and more. But a small suggestion, I know these are dishes which are to be made the same. I am from India, so most of the ingredients are not available at all. So please tell some alternatives like easily available substitutes for such. Please make more rice items also.

[@WoonHeng]

Thanks so much, great suggestion. I do provide some alternatives, if any on my blog. Appreciate your suggestion. Thank you!

[@coffeebreak100]

You can just replace all the spices with Chinese 5 spice powder, that's how I do it. I save on time and effort in sourcing ingredients. 💗

[@HarishGovindarajan3092]

Thanks for the recipe. Can you suggest how to make use of the strained vegetables?

[@WoonHeng]

hi there, since I have a compost bin, I actually compost mine. :-)

[@madhumathims6624]

@@WoonHeng why compost it when it can be eaten...

[@WoonHeng]

@@madhumathims6624 of course you can, I need some for my compost bin as well. :-)

anything I can use instead of jicama? I'm from the UK and can't find it anywhere!

[@saityldz1030]

Hi woonheng, yo soup must be so flavourful for real 😋, just a lil thing I noticed, how about garlic??

[@WoonHeng]

Hey Sait, the original recipe my friend taught has no garlic, so I didn't add some but I bet roasted garlic tasted great in soup too. :-)

[@saityldz1030]

[@sheinloongyap7898]

[@fredacharbel7510]

@Woonheng it look delicious but I can’t eat apple or onions! Is there a substitute? Thanks 🙏 🥰

[@lengoc4217]

You can change apple with pear

[@rideathome]

Is it important to cook the noodle in its own pot? Or can one add them direct to the broth?

[@WoonHeng]

Hi Nick, yes, I prefer that because I want to keep my pho broth clear. Some noodles will have starch and affect the broth.

[@rideathome]

@@WoonHeng Thanks! Cant wait to make this tomorrow...

[@JenR1215]

aside from the lack of meat flavor, how does this broth differ from the beef? is it more sweet?

[@WoonHeng]

Hi Jennifer, it's only a tad sweetness, I would say more umami with all the roasted spices and veggies.

[@JenR1215]

@@WoonHeng thanks so much for the responce!

[@bobogliddabrun]

Cassia bark is bad for you, use actual cinnamon

[@WoonHeng]

thanks for sharing! :-)

[@MJ-ib7iq]

Too many sweet ingredients and rock sugar as well

[@WoonHeng]

Thanks a lot, my recipe is always adjustable.
