Sherry vinegar Pho Pot

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: yellow onion, garlic, vegetable stock and set within reach of the stove.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the leeks in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the pho and let it smoked-paprika, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the kosher salt along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Add the chicken stock and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
6. Off the heat, brighten it up with toasted nuts and a final crack of pepper.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
