Steps
1. Preheat oven to 160C.

medium heat and bring to a simmer until annatto seeds release an orange red
colour. Strain through a fine sieve and reserve the oil.

3. Return the oil back into the frying pan on medium heat and bring to 160C. Add
lemongrass, shallots, ginger and chillies, cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Add
in the mam ruoc hue, cook for 1 minute then add the ground spices and cook for a
further 1 minute. Stir to prevent burning and until ingredients are combined and
fragrant. Remove from the heat and aside for the broth.
4. For the Bun Bo Hue Broth, place the gravy beef, brisket, bones, trotters, oxtail and
2 tablespoons salt into a 10L stock pot and cover with water. Bring to the boil and
boil for 10 minutes. Discard the liquid and rinse all the bones and meat in warm
water. Set aside.

5. Transfer the rinsed meat and bones to a pressure cooker along with the
lemongrass, onion, pineapple, ginger, rock sugar and beef stock along with 3L of
water or enough to cover the ingredients.
6. Add Spiced Oil, beef stock and cook under high pressure for 45 minutes. Release
the pressure and season the broth with fish sauce.
7. Remove the gravy beef and beef brisket and set aside to rest before slicing thinly to
serve. Strain the broth through a large fine sieve into a large saucepan. Cover with
a lid and return to the boil to serve.

8. For the Bone Marrow, clean the sinew from the outside of the bones and place on
a baking tray.
9. Combine the remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the marrow and
roast in the oven until caramelised, about 35 - 40 minutes. Remove from the oven
and set aside.

minutes. Drain well and set aside.

minutes until the dough cools a little. Keep covered.
15. Working in batches, place the dough into a potato ricer and press the dough
directly into the boiling water.
16. Once the noodles float after 2-3 minutes, remove from the water and place into an
ice bath. Drain well before serving.

17. To serve, place the drained noodles in large deep noodle bowls. Add slices of gravy
beef and brisket.
18. Top each bowl with banana blossom, spring onions and water spinach. Add 1 piece
of bone marrow to each bowl and top the marrow with pickled shallots and finger
lime pulp.
