Preparation

1 In large saucepan on medium-high heat, combine stock, carrots, garlic, ginger, fish sauce, vinegar, soy sauce, chili, cinnamon, star anise. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer 15 minutes to blend flavours.
2 Stir in rice noodles, green onions and lime juice; simmer 3 minutes. Add beef; cook 1 to 2 minutes or just until beef is cooked through. Adjust seasoning.
3 Remove cinnamon and star anise before serving. Ladle into soup bowls. Sprinkle top with peanuts, mint, cilantro and basil.
4 Thai Kitchen Tip:
o For less starchy noodles that do not clump together, soak noodles in hot tap water for 5 minutes. Rinse with cold water. Drain well before adding to soup for cooking.
