Blistered Pho Pot

Method

1. Start by prepping your yellow onion, garlic, vegetable stock so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the fennel bulb in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the pho and let it blistered, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the carrots and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Off the heat, brighten it up with chili crisp and a final crack of pepper.
6. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
