Feeling under the weather so I made some chicken Pho in my pressure cooker.
I basically follow Kenji's recipe here: https://www.seriouseats.com/30-minute-pressure-cooker-pho-ga-recipe
First, char two yellow onions and about a 4-inch piece of ginger. I cut the onions in half and cut the ginger into 1-inch slices. I put them in my air fryer lined with aluminum foil for 20 minutes at 400F.
Next, add all of this to a pressure cooker:
* Charred onions
* Charred ginger
* Chicken (recipe says 6-8 raw drumsticks, but I used the carcasses of two rotisserie chickens)
* Small bunch of fresh cilantro
* 3 star anise pods
* 1 tsp fennel seeds
* 1 tsp coriander seeds
* 1 cinnamon stick
* 4 cloves (the spice, not garlic)
* 1/4 cup fish sauce
* 2 Tbsp rock sugar (I omitted this, but maybe monk fruit could be used)
* 2 quarts of water (I used about 12 cups)
Pressure cook for 20 minutes.
Strain broth and serve.
I ate it with shirataki spaghetti noodles, very fine slices of white onion (just a few slices), lime juice from half a lime, various herbs (basil, mint, and cilantro), and chicken.
My guess is probably less than 3g net carbs per serving.
I will say this is a very ingredient and work heavy recipe. The ingredients are not that common in an American household. Even the herbs can be difficult to find. Definitely check your local Asian market.
