Instructions:

1. Prepare the Beef Broth:

  1. In a large pot, combine the beef bones, onion, ginger, cilantro, and green onions. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the broth is flavorful.

2. Cook the Shirataki Noodles:

  1. Rinse the shirataki noodles under cold water and drain well.
  2. Add the noodles to a pot of boiling water and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are tender.
  3. Drain the noodles and rinse them with cold water.

3. Assemble the Keto Pho:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the beef broth, water, soy sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
  2. Add the cooked shirataki noodles, bean sprouts, and jalapeños (if using) to the broth.
  3. Serve the keto pho in individual bowls, garnished with lime wedges and additional cilantro and green onions.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use beef bone broth instead of beef broth.
  • If you don’t have shirataki noodles, you can use other low-carb noodles, such as zucchini noodles or kelp noodles.
  • Add your favorite toppings, such as sliced avocado, crushed peanuts, or a drizzle of Sriracha sauce.
